Leeky Bandz and August 08' of Vision Play Entertainment

LEEKY BANDZ

A passionate soul when it comes to music, Leeky Bandz was always in love with hip hop, it was something he always did with his brothers. Pouring all of his energy into music, you can hear his raw passion and talent in every project. Growing up in the Lower East Side Leeky Bandz was always surrounded by different races and people, his older brothers were always rapping so he combined the two, the diversity around him and his exposure to rap, and created his own lane.

Leeky Bandz is inspired by the greats before him, he uses that and meshes it with the sound of today to create a bridge between old hip hop and new hip hop pushing the envelope in creativity and authenticity. Having released his first full body of work “Life After Future” Leeky Bandz valued quality and lyricism. Motivated by the need to put out a good, lit, cohesive body of work allowed him to do just that.

Determining success based on his goals and dreams, Leeky Bandz brings all of his ideas to fruition. He emphasizes cultivating your success by doing what you like, live out your ultimate dreams! As a listener of PNB Rock, it was surreal for Leeky Bandz to see him reach out for a collaboration, it just speaks to the effort and the work he is putting in. That is perfect example that anything is possible, dare to chase that dream.
