Haystak
(born Jason Winfree
) is an American rapper of Irish and German descent. He is a native of Nashville, Tennessee, who was raised in an upper middle class home by his grandparents.
In the late '90s he aligned himself with a local rap label, Street Flavor, and producers Kevin Grisham and Sonny Paradise. That partnership would result in Mak Million
, Haystak's debut album, which was released on September 15, 1998. That would be followed two years later by Car Fulla White Boys
. On September 26, 2000, Koch records signed Haystak and re-released Car Fulla White Boys
, after seeing how successful it was in the regional market. Two years later, on July 23, 2002, Koch records released Haystak's third album, The Natural
. Subsequently, Haystak would seemingly put out a CD a year, beginning with Return of Mak Million
, his final Koch records release on February 4, 2003, Portrait Of A White Boy, his first for 40 West records and the first of what he called "the white boy trilogy" on October 19, 2004, which also included From Start To Finish released August 2, 2005, and Crackavelli
, his very first double CD released March 20, 2007. A clean-language version of this CD was released on May 22, 2007, as his appeal by this time was broadened to even the youngest of fans. On August 26, 2008, Haystak released Hard To Love
. And in an unheard of move, he would follow that CD album with yet another just one (1) week later called Cracks The Safe
on Siccness records on September 2, 2008. Haystak is currently working on a new CD due sometime in the spring, followed by a greatest hits CD, also due this year.
Haystak released his latest solo album entitled The Natural II on May 12, 2009 through Real Talk Ent.
Haystak is married and has one child, a daughter named Michaela. In addition to rap music, he embarked on an acting career; he had a cameo in the Academy Award nominated move Hustle and Flow
and was featured in the documentary White Boyz Can't Rap
.
