William Lee Payton III B.K.A Bangman Bigalowe, son of Evelyn Warner & William Payton Jr, is a 33 year old artist hailing from the nation's capitol, Washington, DC. Early in life young Bang, then known to family and friends as "Slug", parents split and he called 28th Ave in Marlow Heights, MD home. Coming up in the hood was rough. Bang was taught "honor, respect, and most important, loyalty." His father would always tell him and his friends, "Nothing come easy to a person that's worth keeping. So remember choose your battles and remain a stand up fella." Even though he moved out to MD, his commute back and forth to Quebec Place NW, where his grandmother and family lived, was never a problem. He would even spend weekends and summers there.
