Bankie Travolta is an artist/rapper from Cleveland,Ohio who has already started to gain a fast growing fan base with his “anything goes” style of recording commonly referred to as “Modern day Hippie” music. Not following the usual standards of the industry that rappers shouldn’t sing or express genuine emotion in their music, Bankie has decided to tear down the walls of separation and just do what feels good to him. This attitude is very reminiscent of the “Hippie Movement” from the 60’s that was all about avoiding social and creative boundaries. With artist like Chip Tha Ripper & Kid Cudi still laying the tracks for artist from Cleveland to be successful, Bankie has decided to lay his own tracks but still have the same destination.With his ability to draw a crowd Bankie has had the opportunity to open for more well known artist such as Mac Miller,Chip Tha Ripper & Kid Cudi. He recently did a collaboration effort with z107.9 and Ray Jr. (another upcoming artist from the area) called “Cleveland’s In The House” soon to be aired on World Star Hip Hop. Multiple websites and blogs have embraced Bankie’s sound.Bankie Travolta is the flagship artist for his home… Playground Bully Muzik. “I like 2 make hot music, dress good,chill wit the ladies….and smoke lol lol”
