Life Of A Gangster PTSD
The Story of Taurus
Prison Art by the artist known as Taurus
Returning with his second studio album, Life Of A Gangster PTSD, a 17 track LP that brings us right into the center of the storm with a young Chi Town Taurus and his Great Lakes Region upbringing.
Born on Malcom X Day, the Chicago artist Taurus was raised in the West Side neighborhood known as Capitol Hill.
Growing up all over the Great Lakes from Chicago to South Bend, Michigan City, Rockford, Madison, Bellwood and Milwaukee has given his Music Theatre and Therapy Movement a Soul of the Streets sound that music lovers will enjoy.
Prison Art circa 2019, a 15 song LP was the artist's first full length studio project that commands your attention from the opening track. "I want to be the very first to listen." Isthmus 2018
Activism for Incarcerated Citizens or Art from a never before seen angle, you can look at the life of Taurus and explain his musical history as Urban Lit: an autobiographical diary and narrative of the other side to America's youth explosion or a conversation on Youth Culture and Prison Reform dialogue. However you look at it, that would be the tip of the iceberg.
A single-parent household, private school, criminal career, prison and poetry make for two very powerful albums. And that's only part of the story.
From being number one in Chicago for more than two years and top 3 in the world on Reverbnation with his Evooize De Medici collection (The Skit Tapes), Taurus comes to life right before our very eyes on his Life Of A Gangster PTSD and Prison Art albums both produced by the Mega producer Godxilla from the Great Lakes Triangle.
Life Of A Gangster PTSD and Prison Art go behind the scenes of the artist the way Classics are always designed to. Taurus delivers a strong message as riveting testimony for Prison Reform and reform in our nation's laws while preparing for his upcoming tour.
