Slim Da Mobster is about to get his center-stage debut, courtesy of a certain Dr. Dre. Slim Da Mobster will be featured on Detox, and thus is next in a line of up-and-coming hip-hop artists to find themselves in the big time after working with one of rap's most influential kingmakers.

Dre's The Chronic launched Snoop Dogg's career, and his second solo album, 2001, helped solidify Eminem as a serious talent to pay attention to in the game. With his third opus on the way, the good doctor has tapped South Central rookie Slim Da Mobster to contribute to Detox, alongside heavyweights like Lil Wayne and T.I.

Slim's name is reminiscent of Smoov Da Hustla, actually.
