Cameron F. Gipp[1] (born April 28, 1973[2]), better known by his stage name Big Gipp, is an American rapper. He is a member of the Atlanta-based hip hop group Goodie Mob, with whom he has released six studio albums, as well as the duo Ali & Gipp, with whom he has released one. He is known for his slow, drawn-out rapping dialect with political and street-life themed lyrics.[3]

Released independently, his debut solo album, Mutant Mindframe (2003), narrowly entered the US Billboard 200. He received a nomination for Best Rap Performance by a Duo or Group at the 49th Annual Grammy Awards for his guest appearance alongside Paul Wall and Ali on Nelly's 2005 single "Grillz", which also peaked the Billboard Hot 100. As one half of Ali & Gipp, their debut studio album, Kinfolk (2007), also narrowly entered the Billboard 200.
