Production style

Shawty Redd is known for his traditional trap style and ominous, horror-influenced melodies and chord progressions. A good example of this is his production on Trap House and Let's Get It: Thug Motivation 101. He can also compose melodic instrumentals similar to his work on Snoop Dogg's "Sensual Seduction".

Murder charge

In 2010 Redd shot and killed long term collaborator Damon Martin at Redd's house in Atlanta. Redd was charged with murder but acquitted after the judge ruled Redd acted in self defense.[4]
