In February 2011, JP Tha Hustler took over full operations of Grim Reality Entertainment, signing a slew of new acts to the label, mostly from the Inland Empire area of California. In December 2010, Andrew Holiman (then going by the moniker "Insane Poetry" by himself), moved to Denver, Colorado and joined the Horrorcore label Lyrikal Snuff Productionz as an artist. Together they released the albums Faith_in_Chaos_(Book_of_Revelations) (2003) and Fallen_from_Grace(2007). The initial arrangement was as a producer/artist group collectively known as the new incarnation of the group "Insane Poetry." They also agreed to be equal co-owners of the label. Shortly thereafter, in July 2001, he met Andrew Holiman, frontman for the westcoast horror-rap group Insane Poetry, and together they formed the music label Grim Reality Entertainment. In May 2001, JP Tha Hustler moved from Houston, TX back to the San Fernando Valley in California, where he grew up. Complex also named the album cover for "Po' Like Dis" one of the most ridiculous covers created by graphic arts company Pen and Pixel. As a side note, Eric Diep with Complex deemed "Po' White Trash" to be one of the top 120 worst Rapper names of all time. Diddy was quoted as stating in 2001 that his "Hillbilly Rap" would never sell. Once it was clear that MTV nor Commercial Radio was going to give a push to Po' White Trash, his label and management shelved his project and ceased any further promotion of the album or the artist. Those artists were Bubba_Sparxxx and Tow Down. The video was submitted to MTV, but it was rejected as executives told the artist and his management that they already had two other white southern rap artists in video rotation with similar themes and imagery. A video for the single was shot in Atlanta, GA with a Dukes of Hazzard theme, featuring the General Lee. In November 2000, he moved from Los Angeles to Houston to produced nine tracks on PWT's debut album "Po' Like Dis," which charted on Billboard's top 10 Rap Singles in September 2001 with the song "Po Punch." One of the songs produced by JP Tha Hustler for the album was called "Creepin" and featured Tameka_Cottle from the R&B group Xscape.
