About the Artist

Chi Town Taurus turns prison letters into Penitentiary Hip Hop – salacious, romantic street poetry from SuperMax to the streaming era. Raised on the West Side of Chicago and forged in the belly of the U.S. prison system, Taurus built his sound freestyling in county vans, prison yards, and echoing cell blocks, long before there was a studio or a budget in sight. As founder and “Chief Thug Therapist” of Crime Code Records, he doesn’t just rap about the system – he decodes it. His debut album Prison Art is the first chapter in a multi-album universe that follows the journey from arrest to elevation, followed by Life Of A Gangster PTSD, Gun Line PTSD, and the Block Bois R Us movement. In the Chi Town Taurus world, PTSD isn’t about trauma—it’s a code: Progress • Triumph • Success • Dedication and Prosperity • Tenacity • Synergy • Devotion. Musically, Taurus lives where melodic rap, soulful R&B, conscious hip-hop, and trap collide. Think the raw ambition of Gucci and Jeezy, the soul and storytelling of Ye and ’90s legends, and the gritty, poetic detail of a jailhouse diary. Every record feels like a late-night conversation in the dayroom: honest, unfiltered, and laced with game. Under his parent company Keep It Taurus LLC, Taurus is building more than a catalog – he’s building a culture. The “Crimies” and “CrimeSters” who tap in aren’t just fans; they’re part of a living archive of stories from blocks, counties, and penitentiaries across America. Whether it’s the whistle-driven energy of “Whistling (That Block Bois R Us)” or the introspective realism of his Prison Art era, Chi Town Taurus stands as a blueprint-breaker: proof that even from a concrete cage, you can architect your own constellation. Tap in, press play, and welcome to Crime Code Records – where the bars are real, the stories are lived, and the code is progress.
