Style and influences

Spin described Antwon as "an affable guy who might have one of rap's biggest, best-sounding voices, which he usually focuses on goofy jokes and surprisingly sweet bedroom raps." He has often been compared to The Notorious B.I.G. He noted Kid Rock as his greatest influence.

Controversy

In 2016, Antwon formed Secret Circle along with Wiki and Lil Ugly Mane. Since then, the group released several tracks and played live performances across North America. In 2018, Lil Ugly Mane announced the breakup of the group, not initially indicating a specific reason for the breakup. Antwon posted a statement on Twitter, alluding to unnamed allegations.
