“Some of my music is rough but classy. Some days I make trap music. Some days I make love music. Some of it is flat out nasty,” she points out. “I do everything. I’m versatile. To put it plain and simple, I make turn-up music.” ~Erica Banks

 

Two summers ago would be the first time 21-year-old beauty Erica Banks steps inside a recording studio. Within those two summers, she craftily carved out her lane in the Dallas underground rap scene. In a year, she singlehandedly dropped three jaw-dropping mixtapes, attracted thousands of online fans via her freestyle videos on social media, and inked a deal with 1501 Certified Entertainment, the fastest-growing independent label in the country. And now fresh off her viral Need It" freestyle video bubbling hotter than lava, this honey-complexioned goddess is in a perfect position to add to 1501’s regime in rap music.

1501 Certified Entertainment’s biggest success story to date is multi-platinum rapper Megan Thee Stallion, who Crawford discovered from her Instagram video posts. The 1501 camp is happy to continue fertilizing emerging Texas artists and introduce them to the world. Next up is Erica Banks. Now with the 1501 Certified Entertainment machine backing her latest single “Buss It” and self-titled mixtape, Erica Banks introduces the world to her off-the-cuff flow that knows no boundaries. 1501 Certified Entertainment’s “Erica Banks” Mixtape is available HERE on all platforms.
