Philthy Rich

Biography

Phillip Anthony Beasley (born January 30, 1983), known professionally as Philthy Rich, is an American rapper and convicted felon from Oakland, California.
He began his musical career in 2004, and enlisted local rappers including Mistah F.A.B., J. Stalin, and Shady Nate to embark on his "Stan Bizzness BG's" tour, which was cancelled after Beasley was arrested for selling cocaine and cannabis, for which he was sentenced to six years in prison the following year. His subsequent criminal trials include firearms conspiracy, unlawful weapon possessions, and other federal charges.
Despite remaining independent, he has collaborated with mainstream artists including Rick Ross, Migos, Gucci Mane, French Montana, B.o.B, Jeremih, Fabolous, Waka Flocka Flame, Chief Keef, Juelz Santana, E-40, and Kaz Bałagane among others.

Personal life

Beasley grew up in the Seminary neighborhood of Oakland.
On February 13, 2011, Beasley was arrested with two other people after a rap concert at a nightclub in San Francisco, California, for owning a Bentley that was reported stolen out of Las Vegas.
In August 2012, Beasley was shot three times and drove himself to a hospital where he was released the following day.

Controversy

On September 25, 2013, he released a track entitled "Swear to God" featuring Kurt Diggler. It dissed Bay Area rappers Kafani, Messy Marv & DB Tha General. The track is to appear on his upcoming album N.E.R.N.L. 3. In response, DB released a diss track at Philthy entitled "Luke 16:13" featuring Quise the Criminal on September 27, to be released on his upcoming album Motel 6. That same day Kafani released a diss track entitled "Philthy You a Verse Lick", and "Philthy Bitch" the next day, where he described how he decided to remove Philthy Rich from his song "Slide Thru" featuring Rayven Justice. On September 28, Philthy Rich released another diss track entitled "The Ice Queen, The Girl Girl & The Bebe Store" which also dissed Sacramento-based rapper, Lavish D. On October 1, 2013, Lavish released two diss tracks entitled "Lyrical Ether" and "King of Oakland". In response, Shady Nate & Philthy released a diss track entitled "Fuck Lavish D". Messy Marv plans on releasing a diss record entitled Philthy Rich Is a Bitch on October 22. On October 15, Philthy released a diss record entitled Messy Marv a.k.a. the Girl Girl Is a Fake Blood, containing a freestyle diss over Drake's "Pound Cake / Paris Morton Music 2". The next day, Marv dissed Philthy in a track entitled "I'm Right Here".
