mystikal's debut album, "mystikal", was released on new orleans-based independent record label big boy records in 1994. the album was one of big boy's most successful and gained major success for mystikal. in 1995, he found himself involved in conflict with fellow new orleans rappers signed to rival cash money records, including u.n.l.v., lil wayne & b.g.. they dissed him on tracks like "drag 'em in tha river" by u.n.l.v. and "fuck big boy" by the b.g.'z. he struck back with the diss "beware" which was on his second album, "mind of mystikal". mystikal's sister, michelle tyler (with whom he had close ties), sang the chorus on "not that nigga" and her fate became a major influence on mystikal's music after her murder in september 1994. the songs "dedicated to michelle tyler", "murder" (both on "mind of mystikal"), "murder 2", "shine" (both on "unpredictable") and "murder iii" (on "let's get ready") refer to her murder. it wasn't long after their beef that mystikal and lil wayne decided to squash it and become collaborators.
