Tyruss Himes, better known by his stage name Big Syke (born in Inglewood, California) is an American rapper who was a friend of Tupac Shakur.
His alias is a remake of "Little Psycho", a name he got as a child. He originally started a rap group called Evil Minded Gangstas in 1990, but was anxious to debut as a solo artist. He met 2Pac in 1992, and quickly became a touring aid and friend. He made his official debut in 2Pac's group Thug Life along with 2Pac, Macadoshis, Mopreme & Rated R. After the breakup of the group and 2Pac's release from prison Big Syke appeared in 2Pac's fourth album All Eyez on Me on Disc 2 in Picture Me Rollin and Check out Time, then joined his second group Outlawz, under the alias Mussolini.
In the early nineties Tupac Shakur had always wanted to start a rap group therefore he created a group called Thug Life. Thug Life was made up of mainly unsigned rappers apart from 2Pac who was with Interscope at the time. The members were the founder Tupac Shakur, his step brother Mopreme Shakur, Tupac's close friend Big Syke and other members Macadoshis and Rated R.
Thug Life released only one album called Thug Life: Volume 1 in 1994. The group split up shortly after this due to Tupac's ongoing legal troubles including spending time in prison. When Tupac left prison he had set up the Outlawz and Thug Life was history.
