Loon

Amir Junaid Muhadith (born Chauncey Lamont Hawkins; June 20, 1975), better known by his stage name Loon, is an American former rapper. He is best known for his work with fellow New York rapper Sean "Puff Daddy" Combs, having signed with his record label Bad Boy Records in 1999. Loon most notably guest appeared on Combs' 2002 singles "I Need a Girl (Part One)" and "I Need a Girl (Part Two)," which peaked at numbers two and four on the Billboard Hot 100, respectively.

Prior, he formed the New York City-based hip hop group Harlem World in 1995, with whom he released one studio album—The Movement (1999)—before disbanding in 1999. As a solo act, Loon signed with Arista Records, and later Bad Boy Records that same year to release his eponymous debut studio album (2003). Despite mixed reviews, it was met with commercial success and peaked at number six on the Billboard 200. He then parted ways with the label in the following year due to his conversion to Islam, and released three independent albums until his retirement from recording altogether in 2009.
