Turbo

Chandler A. Great (born August 9, 1994), known professionally as Turbo, is an American record producer. He is best known for his production work for hip-hop artists including Gunna, Nav, Lil Durk, Travis Scott, Drake, Young Thug, and Lil Baby, among others. His producer tag, "Run that back, Turbo", can be heard in many of his productions. He produced Lil Baby and Gunna's 2018 single "Drip Too Hard", which received diamond certification by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA).

Career In 2017, Turbo produced several songs on We Want Smoke, a compilation album by artists signed to T.I.'s Grand Hustle Records. He executive produced Drip Harder, a collaborative mixtape by Gunna and Lil Baby released in 2018, and is the solo producer on four songs of the mixtape, including "Never Recover" and "Close Friends" which were certified Platinum and "Drip Too Hard" which was certified Diamond. He also produced "Slimed In" on Young Thug's compilation album Slime Language, released in 2018. That same year, he produced on Gunna's third mixtape Drip Season 3. He also founded own his record production collective, The Playmakers.

In June 2019, he signed a co-publishing deal with Warner/Chappell Music. In 2020, he released Quarantine Clean with Young Thug and Gunna, which makes it the first song where Turbo is credited as lead artist.

In January 2022 Turbo served as a key producer on Gunna's album DS4Ever, which debuted atop the Billboard 200. With 150,000 album-equivalent units comprising 193.5 million on-demand streams and 4,000 pure sales, it became Gunna's second number-one album. The album notably blocked The Weeknd's album Dawn FM from the top spot by approximately 2,300 units.

In June 2023, Turbo executive produced Gunna's album A Gift & a Curse. Turbo played a central role in crafting the project's identity and guiding its creative vision. His production approach emphasized emotional resonance through sparse, moody instrumentation, blending atmospheric melodies with sharp 808s and crisp hi-hats to underscore the album's themes of isolation, reflection, and resilience. Turbo coordinated with his group of producers The Playmakers to ensure consistency across the album.

His influence extended beyond beat-making, shaping the sequencing, transitions, and tone to deliver a cohesive body of work. Turbo's hands-on involvement not only reinforced his longstanding creative chemistry with Gunna but also demonstrated his growth as a producer capable of leading introspective projects to critical and commercial success.

In January 2024, Turbo reunited with Gunna for his song "Bachelor" a track that samples James Blake's "Do You Ever?".

That same month, musician Jamal Britt filed a lawsuit against Turbo and Warner Chappell Music due to misuse of Turbo's "Run that back, Turbo" producer tag which was recorded by Britt, noting that he "was never given notice that his voice was being used, never properly credited for his contributions to the songs in question and was never compensated from any of the royalty payments, profits, or other income garnered from the exploitation of his recorded voice".
