Big Noyd (born '''TaJuan Perry''' on May 7 , 1975 ) is a Rapper from Queensbridge , New York City . He is closely affiliated with Mobb Deep , and he is featured on all of their first 7 albums. Big Noyd was first introduced with his verse on "Stomp 'Em Out" from Mobb Deep 's 1993 debut '' Juvenile Hell '', but it was first in 1995, on Mobb Deep 's album The Infamous that Big Noyd attracted wider attention. On Mobb Deep's song "Give Up The Goods (Just Step)" from '' The Infamous '' he started the second verse with the line:

''Yo, it's the r-a-double-p-e-r n-o-y-d, niggas can't fuck with me!''

He has later stated in an interview for NobodySmiling, that he received his first contract, for $300,000, because of that line.

His debut Album , '' Episodes Of A Hustla '', was released in 1996 on Tommy Boy Records . But as Big Noyd was incarcerated at the time of the release, he didn't have full control over the album, and the album turned out only to contain 11 songs. Even so, the album is well-regarded amongst fans. In 2003 , Big Noyd returned with his second album, '' Only The Strong ''. This album, just like his debut, had many Mobb Deep -related features, but it was a good introduction to people which had yet to hear Big Noyd's music. Noyd attributes the lackluster sales due to Landspeed Records filing for bankruptcy, in an unrelated lawsuit, just as the album was being released. In 2004, Big Noyd released his third album, '' On The Grind '', also featuring many guest-spots by Mobb Deep -related artists. The album was released independently through Monopolee Records which Noyd helped to found and released under his full control, preventing issues that happened with Landspeed and Tommy Boy Records.

Also in 2004, Big Noyd played the leading role in the Mobb Deep -produced ''Murda Muzik The Movie'', playing a young, upcoming rapper called "Fresh."

He is of African American and Puerto Rican descent. {Link without Title}
