Thouxanbanfauni

Thouxanbanfauni, born Taajwar Hakeem Latimore, is an American rapper from Chattanooga, Tennessee, who was raised in Atlanta, Georgia. He rose to prominence as one of the defining voices of the SoundCloud rap scene of the mid-2010s, known for a laid-back, melodic drawl layered over minimalist, often hazy trap production. His early releases as Taaj Keem gave way to the Thouxanbanfauni persona, with «Rihanna Wrist» in 2015 marking his breakthrough as an independent internet-native artist.

His style blends Southern hip-hop cadences with a hazy, almost slurred delivery that helped define an aesthetic embraced by a wave of underground rappers who built devoted followings entirely outside traditional label systems. Tracks like «Wish The Worst», «Gorgeous», and «Parkin' Lot Pimpin'» showcase his knack for hooks that feel simultaneously off-the-cuff and catchy.

Thouxanbanfauni has remained a prolific and influential figure in the SoundCloud-to-mainstream pipeline, releasing a steady stream of mixtapes and singles that have cemented his cult status among fans of the genre's DIY, internet-first ethos.
