Chris Travis makes hazy, narcotic trap inspired by artists like
Three 6 Mafia, Tommy Wright III, and
Boosie Badazz. He first gained notice as a member of
SpaceGhostPurrp's Raider Klan, which he joined in 2011 after the recommendation of members Amber London and Key Nyata. He appeared on some of their mixtapes and performed with them, but he left around 2013 to concentrate on his solo work, as well as his Water Boyz label. Mixtapes appeared at a rate of about four per year, and
Travis' 2013 video "Crunch Time" became a viral hit. In 2014,
Travis and fellow ex-Raider Klan members
Xavier Wulf and Eddy Baker joined up with Michigan-based rapper Bones to form Seshollowaterboyz.
Travis also collaborated with Bones on a 2014 EP titled SeaBeds, as well as
Robb Bank$ for 2015's No Trespassing.
Travis also guested on tracks by
Yung Simmie,
$uicideboy$, and
Fat Nick. ~ Paul Simpson
