Hailing from Texas, BigXthaPlug found influence in music artists as varied as the Isley Brothers and Lil Wayne to create a style that's totally his own. And on a personal note, his music is also deeply inspired by his difficult upbringing and his life - like his experiences of becoming a father. He launched his own label in 2023, and has been blazing ahead ever since. And if you're too afraid to ask... it's pronounced 'Big X Tha Plug', though you can just call him 'Big X' like most of his super fans do.
