 Luther Campbell
For a time one of the most controversial figures in the music business, Luther Campbell was launched on his road to notoriety in 1985 when he began his association with the rap group 2 Live Crew.
Campbell then assumed management duties for 2 Live Crew, signing them to his newly-founded Luke Skyywalker Records label and releasing their single Throw The D - a track that helped to establish what would come to be known as the 'Miami Bass' sound.
By the second release Move Somethin' (1987), Campbell (now a full-time performing member under his stage name Luke Skyywalker) had realized how to retain the controversial character of the music while also expanding his audience base, and released the album in both 'clean' and 'dirty' versions.
