ABOUT TRIPERO BANDA 22
Tripero Banda 22 is a bold and innovative sound architect rising from the heart of East Scarborough, Toronto. For over a decade, he has honed a distinctive sound that blends the raw energy of trap with the soulful intricacies of classic hip-hop, earning him a reputation as a producer's producer. Recognized for his immersive productions and razor-sharp engineering, Tripero has a unique ability to build entire worlds within his instrumentals. His beats are more than just loops; they are narratives, providing a rich, textured canvas for artists to paint their lyrical masterpieces. His dedication to the craft goes beyond the studio, as he is a passionate advocate for artist development and collaboration. As a respected name in the city’s underground music scene and beyond, Tripero has worked with a diverse roster of artists, always pushing them to new creative heights. Whether it's a radio-ready banger or an introspective album cut, his work is consistently marked by its quality, depth, and undeniable bounce. From my early mixtapes like 3434 to newer records like Southside 2 Tha 6ix and Super Loner, I’ve always seen music as a bridge between struggle and transcendence. I use my multicultural story as a vessel to bring forward the vibrancy of where I come from, while pushing the boundaries of sound and message. My goal is always to spark thought, shift energy, and leave something timeless behind.
