Hailing from Brooklyn with roots in Guyana and Jamaica, YXNGWXRLDBANNA is more than just an artist—he’s a storyteller shaped by culture, experience, and a relentless passion for music. Raised in a household where Caribbean sounds filled the air, his early musical education came naturally. But it was a single moment—the day he bought Ready to Die by The Notorious B.I.G.—that shifted his path and sparked a deep connection to hip-hop.
What makes YXNGWXRLDBANNA stand out is his fearless blend of sounds. He doesn’t just stick to one lane—his music fuses hip-hop with Caribbean vibes, trap, boom bap, and other genres, creating a sound that’s undeniably his. He calls it universal, and that versatility is exactly what draws crowds to his performances at venues like the Brooklyn ARC, SOB’s, and the PlayStation Theatre. Whether it’s a packed house or a local open mic, he shows up with the same energy and commitment to connecting with the audience.
In 2016, he leveled up by launching his own independent label, YWO (Young World Order). Built on the idea of unity through individuality, the label is home to a collective of artists who move as a team but shine in their own right. It’s not just about the music—it’s about building an ecosystem where each voice is heard and respected.
Today, YXNGWXRLDBANNA continues to grow his platform with the support of a distribution partnership with RTMG Music. His vision is long-term. He’s not chasing trends—he’s creating timeless work. His mission is to leave something real behind. A legacy. Something his people can be proud of.
From Brooklyn blocks to international playlists, YXNGWXRLDBANNA is proving that greatness doesn’t come from following a blueprint—it comes from building your own.
