Travis Tremayne Tyler was born in Greenwood, Mississippi on March 17, 1977.[3][4] As a baby Thi'sl and his family moved to St. Louis, Missouri where at the age of 14 Thi'sl started rapping. Under the name Uncle Y he recorded his first demo, however his album was influenced by the gang activity which he was involved in.[5][6] After living and rapping about the street life, Thi'sl eventually straightened up his life and devoted it to positive rapping.[2]
Thi'sl has been involved helping in the community of Ferguson, Missouri after the shooting of an 18-year-old man, Michael Brown. He recently addressed the public about justice issues in the St. Louis, Missouri area and he put together a peace response, calling out the community and church to take part in the healing of the community.[7] On December 13, 2014, Thi'sl teamed up with Bubba Watson and donated $25,000 to repair vandalism and stolen technology at local Ferguson school Griffith Elementary.[8]
