ARTIST OVERVIEW   Born in Chicago. Forged in the American penal colony. Refined through pressure.   Chi Town Taurus is a melodic rap and soulful R&B architect whose music lives at the intersection of pain, perseverance, and power. His sound is gritty yet elevated — streetwise but introspective — built on evocative lyrics, driving melodies, and commanding vocals that feel like therapy with drums.   He doesn’t just rap about survival. He codes it.   Under his Crime Code Records philosophy, PTSD carries dual meaning: • Progress. Triumph. Success. Dedication. • Prosperity. Tenacity. Synergy. Devotion.   Every record is a blueprint rewrite. Because blueprints are often wrong.   ORIGIN STORY   In 2016, fueled by a relentless need to tell his truth, Chi Town Taurus opened his own studio and began crafting what would become a movement. From there, he transitioned into commercial studio circuits across the Great Lakes region, building a reputation for precision, presence, and purpose — including notable collaborations with Milwaukee producer Godxilla.   Inspired by time spent navigating America’s correctional system, he transformed isolation into innovation. What others saw as confinement, he used as refinement.   By 2019, his voice was traveling internationally — earning recognition from the London Music Video Festival and appearing across FM radio and network television including CAN-TV, My24, and 414 Spotlight.   DISCOGRAPHY + MOMENTUM   Albums & Projects • Prison Art • Life Of A Gangster PTSD • Dope Boiiii Gang Skit Tape Vol. 1 • Block Bois R Us • Gun Line PTSD   In 2022 alone, Chi Town Taurus released 39 records, proving work ethic is louder than circumstance.   His 2023 LP Gun Line PTSD exploded digitally — generating 37.3+ million YouTube Shorts plays, cementing his ability to create viral-ready moments without compromising substance.   Music from Prison Art — including “Pinchin’” and “Going Up The River” — was featured in the Amazon Prime film The Grail, expanding his reach into cinematic storytelling.   LIVE PERFORMANCE   Chi Town Taurus commands stages the same way he commands records — deliberate, controlled, impactful.   He has performed at: • Miramar Theatre • Wisconsin Masonic Center • Hot Water Warehouse • The Crucible • The Annex • Bug N’ Out Lounge • The Art In   He has shared stages with artists including: • B.
