Travis Lloyd on Wikipedia! http://www.en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Travis_Lloyd
Fueled by a personal need for expression of a broken past and the desire to inspire others, Travis Lloyd started writing poetry and song lyrics at the age of 10.
After countless open mic performances and reading poetry to just about anyone who would listen, Travis Lloyd wrote and recorded his first rap song at the age of 18.
Writing lyrics all night and dozing off in class became a standard while Travis Lloyd began a career in health care to pay his way through college. Still struggling with the past, Travis Lloyd searched for answers in all the wrong places and found himself in trouble at the age of 20.
Staying true to the belief that "Everything happens for a reason,"he viewed his experiences as a lesson to be learned and got the phrase "Against All Odds" tattooed across his shoulder blades; insinuating that he was determined to make something of himself and find a new path.
After completing a bachelor's degree, at the age of 23, and getting involved with a local youth group for teens in foster care, Travis Lloyd found an outlet for his inspirational poetry and songs that he felt did not fit in prior performances.
