Thangsta: Main N!gga from the way now!
Born on June 19, 1984, as Michael “B-Thang” Ross, known by his stage name Ec_Thangsta hails from
Aliquippa, a small town on the outskirts of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, known for its rough neighborhoods and resilient communities. Growing up as the second of three children in a challenging environment, B-Thang witnessed first-hand the impacts of street life, with his family entangled in the struggles of addiction and poverty. Early on, he was drawn into the cycle of “the next play,” a mindset rooted in survival that became central to his youth. Ec_Thangsta’s music is a reflection of these formative years, embodying the harsh realities and untold stories of life in Western PA.
From the age of 11, Ec_Thangsta was already entangled in the legal system, having faced his first felony charge. His teenage years were marked by a relentless engagement in street life, a path that eventually
led to a severe consequence: a 17-to-40-year prison sentence that began at age 22. While incarcerated, he experienced both the brutal lows and unexpected highs of prison life, where every day presented a
choice between personal growth or descent into hopelessness. Ec_Thangsta’s music is fueled by resilience and a commitment to realness, with tracks that
reflect both the struggles he’s overcome and the energy of his hometown,
