Grillz have been around since the early 80’s with Atlanta Rappers like Kilo Ali and Raheem The Dream. The trend spread quickly up north when a New York jeweler named Eddie Plein started making grillz for rappers. Eddie Plein relocated his shop in Atlanta where he renamed it Eddie’s Famous Gold Teeth. Once in Atlanta he continued to design ever-more-elaborate grills for rappers like Outkast, GoodieMob, Ludacris and Lil Jon. Other writers have cited Slick Rick and Afrika Bambataa as an important early contributor to the popularity of grills.
