Where did it come from?
Raspy-voiced New Orleans-based rapper Mystikal (born Michael Lawrence Tyler in 1970).
His two biggest hits, “Shake Ya Ass” and “Danger (Been So Long),” both came out in the year 2000. But earlier singles — such as “Ain’t No Limit” feat. Silkk the Shocker, released in 1997 — are what drew attention to his stage name initially.

(Other dual-gender debuts I’ve posted about include Draven, Illya, Rikishi, and Sundown.)
