Every so often there is an artist who shatters expectations and breaks barriers. Enter Mr_Traficante, the combined package of his unique image, sound, and presence has never been seen before in hip hop or in music. Standing 6’4 250 pounds, the New Jersey Native is most known for his hit record “Like A Banka”, which made its way to radio’s Hot 97. The song has hundreds of thousands of views across multiple platforms. From shooting videos overseas to performing in big name venues like Barcode in Elizabeth NJ and Webster Hall in NYC, Mr_Traficante never stops working. He always felt like he was playing as the underdog so he kept that mentality. He wants to inspire, motive, and spread positivity, while battling for the top spot. His newest single, which was filmed in Miami called “Stay Sleeping” is generating a lot of buzz. It’s high energy, aggressive, and made for anyone who feels like they’re being slept on. Since music helped him push through his own struggles and keep pushing further, he hopes to be able to provide that kind of positive energy in his music. He also created songs like “Your Body” and “Came To Party”, Which showcases other types of sound and vibes. So when he’s not motivating people, he’s setting the mood with his fiery, sexy R&B or he’s setting a good vibe, with Caribbean influenced party music.
