Hey there, just give me five minutes of your time. Yes, thank you for that. My name’s Chukwunonso Agu, known lyrically as Chucks Èhtréppär aka Chucks È, Yung Spitta, et Yung Warlock...you know I could go on with it, LOL!

His admiration for artists such as Lil Durk, Lil Baby, and 21 Savage also shapes his trap-centric sound.
