Career

A turning point is his career is when he began traveling and creating content with artists outside of his home region in Northern California. After creating videos with Icewear Vezzo in Detroit and Fat Joe in Atlanta in 2018, Bankz was recognized at the national level, and getting a coveted ukulele video with him became a rite of passage for up and coming rappers.

His production credits include tracks for artists such as 21 Savage, Quando Rondo, Travis Scott and Dave East. He also produced Louisiana artist Fredo Bang's hit single "Oouuh".[3]
