WHAT IT IS: Dallas rapper Erica Banks has proved herself as a real rap spitter with undeniable confidence, relentless flow and infectious energy. Banks followed up her buzzworthy, now-gold-certified “Buss It” with a series of tracks, including viral hit “Toot That,” “Designer,” “Slim Waist” and most recently “Pop Out.” The 23-year-old, who’s dubbed herself “The Flow Queen,” is just weeks away from the release of her mixtape, Diary of The Flow Queen. With an opening slot on T-Pain’s The Road to Wiscansin Tour and a string of festival dates ahead, Banks continues to put her Southern swag on full display.
