Born and raised in Chattanooga, TN, YGTUT is a son of a preacher and has been surrounded by music since he was young. The emerging rapper fuses genres like R&B, Soul, etc. into his music and incorporates numerous live instruments into the production – the latter a reflection of his southern roots and the live music scene in Tennessee. In 2010, TUT co-founded the collective The House with TDE’s Isaiah Rashad – a force which has been putting Chattanooga on the musical map since, and that recently released their collective project "The House Presents: The Set" earlier this year.  TUT announced his arrival on the scene in 2015, via his critically acclaimed debut project "Preacher’s Son" that received praise from Pitchfork, HYPEBEAST and more. That project was followed by the release of Four Two Three in 2017, his I.O.U. EP in 2019 and the singles “Bootleggers” “Chattanooga Vendetta” in 2020. Most recently, TUT connected with Isaiah Rashad for the track “Chad” off Rashad’s new album TheHouse Is Burning, followed by "Dolla Signs" in December 2021. Last Ep was with Ducko Mcfli in December 2022.
