Ace Hood

Antoine Franklin McColister (born May 11, 1988), known professionally Ace Hood, is an American rapper. Born in Port St. Lucie and raised in Deerfield Beach, Florida, he was discovered by DJ Khaled and became the first act to sign with his record label, We the Best Music Group in 2008. Released in a joint venture with Def Jam Recordings, his debut studio album, ''Gutta'' (2008) was met with mild critical and commercial reception, but yielded his first ''Billboard'' Hot 100 entry, "Ride" (featuring Trey Songz).

He released his second album, ''Ruthless'' (2009) to similar reception. His third and fourth albums, ''Blood, Sweat & Tears'' (2011) and ''Trials & Tribulations'' (2013) both peaked within the top ten of the ''Billboard'' 200. The former was led by the single "Hustle Hard", while the latter was led by "Bugatti" (featuring Future and Rick Ross), which peaked at numbers 60 and 33 on the ''Billboard'' Hot 100, respectively. McColister then parted ways with We the Best Music in 2016 in favor of an independent career. Provided by Wikipedia
