The Beginning
David Hutto was born and raised in and around Covington, Georgia. As a teen, he played bass guitar in several metal bands, before launching a solo hip hop career, using the stage name, Turncoat Dirty. While selling demos and EPs at Insane Clown Posse concerts in the mid-2000s, he members of ICP noticed him and listened to the music. They contacted record producer Jason Bruce, and soon Hutto was signed to Psychopathic Records. He took on a killer scarecrow image and changed his stage name to Boondox.
He released his first album in 2006, entitled The Harvest. Featured guest appearances on the album include Axe Murder Boys, Baze Ya Dead Homie, Insane Clown Posse, and Twiztid. He released the single, They Pray with Snakes, and made a music video for the song. He embarked on a concert tour with Blaze Ya Dead Homie to promote the album.
Gaining Speed
In 2007, Boondox released an EP, entitled PunkinHed. It features four songs and a number of remixes including They Pray with Snakes. The EP peaked at #10 on the Billboard Heatseeker chart. Also in 2007, he joined Psychopathic Rydas, a hip hop supergroup, consisting of Booncox, Joseph Bruce, Joseph Utsler (Full Clip), Twizted's Paul Methric (Foe Foe) and Jame Spaniolo (lil Shank), and Chris Rouleau (Cell Block). The group released four albums between 1999 and 2007; Boondox performed on the last release.
In 2008, Boondox released his second solo album, Krimson Creek. The album peaked at #1 on Billboard's Top Heatseekers and at #113 on the Billboard Top 200. Shaggy 2 Dope and Violent J, both of Insane Clown Posse, make guest appearances on the album, as do Blaze and Monoxide Child.

Did you know . . .
When Boondox was five years old, his uncle tried to drown him in the swimming pool. He raps about it on his album, Krimson Creek.
Boondox is the first artist on the Psychopathic Records label who is not from a city or urban area.
According to Boondox, the title, The Harvest, refers to the rewards we reap for eternity from the seeds of hatred we plant here on earth, in this “very large field called life.”
