Since he first exploded onto the scene, Chris Ludacris Bridges has emerged not only as a chart topper and hit maker (his Def Jam South CDs Back For The First Time, Word of Mouf, Chicken N Beer, and, most recently, The Red Light District, have sold over 10 million copies) but also an influential label head, in demand cameo king and up and coming actor. A mere 4 short years in the game, Ludacris has proven that he has the tenacity and talent to push hip-hop music, and himself to new heights.
Chief on the to-do list for Ludacris is maintaining his fan base but still having the creative courage to reach out to potential new audiences. Chris has shown himself to be flexible: able to hold it down with the grimiest of rappers and then seize the spotlight as he did on Usher's #1 smash “Yeah.”
Ludacris's achievements extend beyond the confines of his own albums. As a pivotal member, both behind the mic and behind the scenes of the posse/label Disturbing Tha Peace, Chris has brought his expertise and enthusiasm to a roster of artists that include Fate, 1-20, Shawnna, Playaz Circle and Tity Boi. Along with his hands on participation in DTP, Ludacris oversees The Ludacris Foundation, a non-profit organization he created 3 years ago.
The Ludacris Foundation mission is to help young people achieve their dreams through the encouragement of “Principles of Success” and to show young people in America they are the builders of their future. The Foundation reaches those goals by incorporating music and the arts to connect with young people by listening to their views, issues, and challenges. Giving back is something of utmost importance to Ludacris, who back in his days as a popular D.J. on Atlanta's Hot 97, often participated in community service outreach.
Along with his commitment to doing for others Ludacris has been making inroads in other arenas. After generating positive reviews for his role in “2 Fast 2 Furious,” Ludacris was most recently seen in “Crash.” Acting is something Ludacris takes very seriously; so much so that for some cinematic endeavors Chris is billed under his real name, Chris Ludacris Bridges.
