Travie
Travis Lazarus "Travie" McCoy (born August 5, 1981) is an American rapper, singer, and songwriter. He is the co-founder and lead vocalist of the rap rock band Gym Class Heroes, which he formed in 1997 with his classmate Matt McGinley, after the two became acquainted with the East Coast punk rock scene.
Gym Class Heroes recorded independently before signing to Fueled by Ramen and releasing the album, The Papercut Chronicles (2005). They signed to Decaydance for their next album, As Cruel as School Children (2006), which contained the hit singles "Cupid's Chokehold" and "Clothes Off!!." In 2007, McCoy launched the label BatSquad to sign then-unknown rapper Tyga. Following the release of The Quilt (2008), Gym Class Heroes took a hiatus, and McCoy shifted focus to his solo work. He signed with Decaydance in a joint venture with T-Pain's Nappy Boy Entertainment to release his debut studio album, Lazarus (2010). The lead single, "Billionaire" feat. Bruno Mars was certified 4x platinum in the US. His 2015 non-album single "Golden" feat. Sia was certified platinum in Australia. In 2022, McCoy signed with Hopeless Records to release his second solo album Never Slept Better. Gym Class Heroes were inducted into the Rochester Music Hall of Fame in 2025.
