Aaron Lashane Thomas, also know as Teezo, has been active in the music industry for around eight years. He has multiple successful credits to his name, few of which have also been on top of the charts for a long time.

Teezo Touchdown's father was a DJ, and since they had a radio at home, it helped him develop some knowledge of music. While he created some DIY hip-hop tracks, he managed to get recognition with his project, 100 Drums, which came out back in 2019.

In 2022, he made his international festival debut with Lil Yachty, Playboi Carti, and The Kid LAROI at the ALT+LDN. He said in an interview with NME at the time that he is exploring all the genres and experiments the same in front of the public.

"You've got to be comfortable with it. I'm glad I'm being allowed to do that though because I see a lot of artists that get held to what their fans want them to make. Hopefully the future of music is artists being allowed to do whatever makes them happy, the same way a person would do whatever makes them feel happy."

Teezo Touchdown also recalled the time when he was growing up in Beaumont, Texas. He said that it is a place "where dreams come to die." He added that most of them shifted to Los Angeles to make their dreams come true.

"Now though, my success is showing people that you can achieve things if you're from Beaumont or anywhere else. My job is to be able to break down those barriers that people are often pinned down by on how you're supposed to sound and look if you're from a certain place."
