Travis Lazarus "Travie" McCoy is an American rapper, singer, and songwriter. He is the co-founder and lead vocalist of the rap rock band Gym Class Heroes, which he formed in 1997 with Matt McGinley, after the two became acquainted with the East Coast punk rock scene. After releasing their debut album independently, the group signed with Fueled by Ramen, a subsidiary of Warner Music Group, to release their second album, The Papercut Chronicles (2005).
During the band's hiatus, McCoy shifted focus onto his solo work and signed with the aforementioned label in a joint venture with T-Pain's Nappy Boy Entertainment to release his debut studio album, Lazarus (2010). Its lead single, "Billionaire" (featuring Bruno Mars), peaked at number four on the Billboard Hot 100 and number three on the UK singles chart.
