GOOD DAY MR BANKY. WAGWAN? 
Cool Chilling. Lol. Whats good bro?

EDUCATIONAL BACKGROUND?
Primary school Clemmy, secondary schools Tunyo JSS 1-3 , Primetouch SS 1-3 then babcock university

AT WHAT AGE DID YOU START PRODUCTION, AND WHAT MADE YOU GO INTO THAT ASPECT
OF MUSIC?
Started 2010 was 17 then. Back then I loved listening to other peoples work and that basically gave me ginger to start making my own kind of music.

WITH SO MUCH COMPETITION IN THE INDUSTRY, HOW DO YOU THINK YOU STAND OUT
FROM THE REST?
What most people fail to realize about the industry is that it takes anything to blow up but takes skill and precision to last. I am on a constant journey to always keep improving and learning new sounds from all over the world. In brazil there are sounds you may have never heard in your life that sound so beautiful and in Germany they have all sorts of sounds that one can pick up and use to influence their music. You can produce a thousand hits and decide you’re the best and don’t need any improvement. I can make two thousand hits and still be looking for ways to improve because music is forever and its about learning. 



WE KNOW PRODUCTION REQUIRES A LARGE AMOUNT OF CONCENTRATION, HOW ARE YOU
ABLE TO MIX THAT WITH SCHOOL?
Really not easy. What I do most of the time is leave school during the weekends work with whoever I want to work with then when im done I send the song to the management and they handle everyother stuffs like when to drop the songs and other things to get the songs out there but to be honest If I had another chance to start allover from 2010 I would wait till when im done with school. Lol. Trust me its not easy but there’s God.

WHAT OTHER PRODUCERS DO YOU SEE AS YOUR PRIMARY INSPIRATIONS
Timbaland, Swizz Beats, Sarz

WHAT IS DISTINCTIVE ABOUT MADRAGON/MONSTER BOYS
The Music and Image we bring is something you wont hear or see on a normal day and I have only God to thank for that. We are able to use our various taste and knowledge in music to all come together as one and make something that will surely grab your attention.

WHAT ARE WE TO EXPECT FROM BANKY THIS SUMMER?
Good Music!

WE ALL KNOW RAYCE IS A TALENTED ARTISTE, WHAT WAS IT LIKE WORKING WITH HIM?
It was dope. Hes a good artiste, Producer and a crazy person(in a good way). Enjoyed working with Him. Shout Out To Rayce!

THE BEST ARTISTE(S) YOU'VE WORKED WITH SO FAR?
Don’t have one. Loved the time I have spent with every single soul I have worked with. Work with every single one of them for a reason. 

IS THERE ANY ARTISTE YOU WOULD LIKE TO WORK WITH BUT HAVEN'T GOTTEN THE
OPPORTUNITY YET?
Yeah. ASA

YOU'VE BEEN IN THE GAME A WHILE NOW, WHAT KEEPS YOU GOING, UR MOTIVATION?
My Niggas and My Fans. And also the good comments I get from people that take there time to get and listen to my Works. God Bless Everyone

AS A BAD GUY HOW DO YOU CHILL?
Do I chill. Making Music in the studio is chilling for me.


IS THERE A MISS BANKY?
At all.


WHAT'S YOUR ADVICE TO ALL THE ASPIRING PRODUCERS OUT THERE?
They should never stop working hard, learning from others and its best working with the people you started with from day one cause they are the ones that understands how you go about your works. And never feel you cant do what other good producers are doing trust me its nothing. Stick Your own style of music. 

YOUR NEW SINGLE #SOULOFSALSA, WHAT ARE WE TO EXPECT FROM IT?
A Club Banger! And watch out for YEBA BANKYONDBEATZ FT TOMI THOMAS, MUNA AND OZZY B. YOU NEVER EXPERRED IT!.
