Originally Hailing from Atlanta, Georgia, Bankreaux wrote his first rap ever to an instrumental from Andre 3000's "Love Below" album and instantly knew that writing and performing was his ONLY Path in life. He also spent time growing up in Savannah, Ga, and eventually landed in San Antonio, TX where he finished high school (and currently resides now), and also has roots in Austin, Texas. This real life "Rolling Stone" was influenced heavily by R&B, Smooth Jazz, Neo-soul, Funk and of course hip hop itself, where he studied artists like Tupac, Outkast, Jody Breeze, and DMX, and created this self described "weird melting pot of styles and influences" to develop the constantly evolving sound he has today.
