Before releasing his acclaimed 2002 mini-album LA Confidential Presents Knoc-Turn'al, the Long Beach, California rapper made a name for himself on four songs on Dr. Dre's multi-platinum disc Chronic 2001. He co-wrote three songs on Dre and Snoop Dogg's soundtrack to the movie The Wash, and was featured on the soundtrack's first single, "Bad Intentions". Knoc also teamed up with Dre and DJ Quik to turn out "Put It On Me", the hit single from the Training Day soundtrack. Knoc-Turn-al's laconic style is best displayed, however, on his much-anticipated LA Confidential/ Elektra full-legth debut, The Way I Am. Surrounded by some of hip hop's hottest players, including Snoop Dogg, Xzibit, Nate Dogg and Lil' Mo, Knoc serves up gems such as the first single "The Way I Am", already a smash at the mixshows.
