"Who Dat" The JT Money Story

Anthony Cornelius Hamilton (born January 28, 1971), is an American singer and songwriter. Hailing from Charlotte, North Carolina, he signed with Uptown Records, an imprint of MCA Records to record his debut studio album XTC; scheduled for release in 1996, it was ultimately shelved due to its singles failing to chart. He then gained recognition for his guest performance on Nappy Roots' 2002 single "Po' Folks," which peaked at number 21 on the Billboard Hot 100 and led him to sign with Jermaine Dupri's So So Def Recordings, an imprint of Arista Records.
Hamilton's second studio album, Comin' from Where I'm From (2003) received platinum certification by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA), earned four Grammy Award nominations, and spawned the 2004 single "Charlene", which peaked at number 19 on the Billboard Hot 100. His third and fourth albums, Ain't Nobody Worryin' (2005) and The Point of It All (2008), both peaked within the top 20 of the Billboard 200 and received gold certifications by the RIAA. He then parted ways with So So Def in favor of RCA Records to release his fifth and sixth albums, Back to Love (2011) and What I'm Feelin' (2016).
Hamilton has won a Grammy Award from 12 nominations, and is also known his song "Freedom" (with Elayna Boynton) which he co-wrote and performed for the soundtrack album to the 2012 film Django Unchained.
