Big B (rapper)  Bryan Mahoney (born July 30, 1972), best known by his stage name, Big B, is an American rapper currently signed with Suburban Noize Records as a solo artist. Along with John E. Necro, he performs vocals in the rap rock band OPM, which is also signed with Subnoize. Big B was born Bryan Mahoney in Upland, California and raised in Las Vegas, Nevada. He started out in a Las Vegas-based band, 187. He was an original member of the bands Spade Brigade and OPM, as well as one of the co-founders of Controversy Sells. The Kottonmouth Kings met Big B through freestyle motocross events. DJ Bobby B, D Loc, and Richter occasionally met Twitch, Scummy, Metz, and Dawes, who were good friends with Big B.  Bobby B, Loc and Richter praised Big B and his band OPM to the Subnoize leaders, including Daddy X. Subnoize listened to OPM and were very pleased, but unfortunately, the band was already signed to a major label; Atlantic. After enjoying the label, Big B decided to sign a deal. Within a week he met Mellow Man Ace and Bronek while in the studio. Ace from Ice-T's camp attended the Sub Noize office and heard some of Big B's work in which he expressed his interest in the artist. This ultimately resulted in Big B's debut solo album under Suburban Noize Records known as High Class White Trash. Since then, Big B has released multiple albums, including three with OPM. He has also collaborated with The Dirtball and Subnoize Souljaz. In addition, he was featured on the track "Keep It Simple" for Blaze Ya Dead Homie's album, Clockwork Gray. Big B and The Dirtball also collaborated on an all-exclusive song called "Check Royalty" for the "When There's No More Room In Hell Volume 1" compilation which was put out on SugarDaddy Records, an independent label fronted by the band Wolfpac's front man Daddy Long Legs. In 2009, Big B released a duet with Scott Russo from Unwritten Law called "Sinner", which peaked at #23 on Billboard's Alternative Songs. It also received radio play. Big B has been an underground heavyweight since he debuted on the scene with ‘High Class White Trash’ in 2004. However, he made his presence known in the mainstream in 2009 when his single “Sinner”, which featured Scott Russo from Unwritten Law, exploded in the Alternative Rock radio format and became the anthem for that summer, garnering heavy airplay from the world-famous KROQ amongst others.
