BHI is the crunk group from Atlanta that with the help of Lil Jon, created the major club banger "Do It Do It." B.H.I. stands for Born Hustlers Inc. and is comprised of super producer K-Rab, Hard Head, Yung J, and Skeet.
K-Rab is arguably the originator of the snap dance movement. It was K-Rab who produced D4L's Snap mega hit "Laffy Taffy," and K-Rab is expanding on everything snap with his group BHI.
BHI is signed to Lil Jon's BME Records and Strickly Bizness Records, K-Rab's label. BHI's other singles are "Hand Clap" and "Dat Bubble Gum."
