Kirko Bangz is a rapper from Houston who started putting out music in the early 2010s. His 2011 mixtape 'Progression 2: A Young Texas Playa' got some attention locally, and he worked with artists like Wiz Khalifa and Chris Brown around that time.
Things picked up in 2013 when 'Drank In My Cup' became a hit, landing on the Billboard charts. That track, along with songs like 'What Yo Name Iz' and 'Came Here For Something,' gave him a recognizable sound that mixed Houston's chopped-and-screwed feel with more melodic, radio-friendly hooks.
He had some legal trouble in 2014 and took a break, then came back with music that sometimes stirred debate, like the 2016 track 'Uber Everywhere' with PnB Rock. Through it all, he kept releasing material, including later songs like 'Work Sumn' with Tory Lanez and Jacquees.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
