His Sound
As a performer his vocal delivery can be described as melodic, with a trill yet even tempo.  As a songwriter he’s a lyrical Picasso who vividly paints stories that resemble the ebb and flow of growing up in the school of hard knocks. 
 
Banco BizMol cites rappers like J. Cole and the musical duo Rock City as his biggest musical inspirations. 
 
He’s performed throughout the Virgin Islands (both British and U.S.) and in the United States.
