During her incarceration, Sxnbad maintained her gang principles at the sametime maturing mentally. After being stabbed in the eye and almost losing sight, she took a step back to reanalyze her life; not wanting to live up to the stereotype of “just another gang banger that didn’t amount to anything”, instead choosing to change the dynamics of history concluding the facts that she refused to be handicap or incapable of becoming successful and wanting to live in order to leave an honorable legacy similar to that of Nipsey Hussle (RIP); thus far being a gang banger who applied their knowledge further than their struggle. Talented and creative, Sxnbad enjoys sharing her passion and lucrative thoughts with others through multi avenues such as rapping, drawing and now Urban fiction as she hopes to shine light on real life experiences to educate mankind on the trials and tribulations of America’s urban culture that you can't “Google” and no one wants to really talk about.
