#Repost @noexcusesfound Join us! Excited to be apart of such an amazing benefit! ・・・ #Diamondsandbowties is excited to announce one of our music performers for our 2nd Annual Fundraiser Fashion Show, Houston's own, Rocky Banks! Rakeem Ishmauel Mahammad Williams, better known by his stage name Rocky Banks, is an American alternative Hip-Hop music artist from Houston, TX. Rocky Banks has released 2 mixtapes, In Other News, I Don’t Do Drugs Anymore (2015), Trust In Banko (2017). In his early career, Banks drug habits and battle with depression began to take a strong presence in his life. With a second chance at life, the experience gave a new breath to Houston talents message and brand. He made a choice to check in to rehabilitation and use his platform to inspire other to acknowledge and pursue self-improvement. These chain of events would be responsible for the inspiration to launch his own label and create his debut solo project. Banks began to gain recognition following the late 2015/early 2016 release of his first solo album, "In Other News I Don't Do Drugs Anymore," which first introduced the artist's personal hardships and his acceptance of drug addiction. Following the release of this project, Banks received cosigns from The Fader, Hip-Hop DX, Los Angles Leakers, & Revolt TV. @therockybanks #walktherunway #fashionshow #runway #runwaymodel (at MATCH - Midtown Arts & Theater Center Houston)
