Antavio Johnson
Antavio Johnson also known as T.O. was born March 3, 1989 in Tallahassee Florida. At a young age T.O. was adopted and relocated to Lakeland Florida. It was here his musical explorations started. In middle school T.O. and childhood friends Jayy Flyy and All Starr formed Skee Bwoi Entertainment. Soldiers Keeping Each other Elevated, Beyond Whatever Obstacles Intervene. To T.O. and his crew this was more than a statement it was a way of life. As time went on T.O. continued to make a name for himself working with artists such as Tampa Tony, Benny Blanco, Flizzie Fly, and Young Reala just to name a few. T.O has also shared the stage with Lil Boosie, Webbie, Khia and Plies. In 2009 T.O.’s lyrics would become the most talked about topic in the nation. In 2009 T.O. was sentenced to two years in prison for a song he wrote and recorded titled “Kill me a cop” even though the song was released by an irresponsible third party who took full responsibility for his actions T.O. still had to suffer. Even though T.O. missed the birth of his daughter, shared birthday’s with his beloved mother and good times with his loyal squad. T.O. smiles and reminds himself that it was something he had to go through to grow and become the changed man that he is today and continues to look forward to a bright future once in jeopardy. In September 2011 the world will finally get to hear new music from the young phenom, a joint collaboration between T.O. and legendary Lakeland producer Coni Cone as they release their mix-tape titled “THE UND@-ST8-MENT” as well as a tour with his Skee Bwoi Affiliates Coni Cone, !3r@vo, and TKN.
