It was the experiences that he encountered as a youth in Maryvale that he would turn into songs and a budding rap career as he performed under the alias Atllas. He would channel the angst of being an inner-city youth with aspirations of making something out of himself into a sonic landscape that would land him local acclaim and national attention. Though his rap career was promising, it never quite took off the way he imagined.
So as he pursued stardom, he always kept a consistent job as a plan B. The majority of Lloyd’s work experience has been in community and nonprofit work, with an emphasis on children. Today, he is a married father of two, a graduate of Arizona State University Lodestar Center’s Nonprofit Leadership and Management Certificate Program, and holds an associate of science from Phoenix College.view less
