Elliott plays multiple instruments including the keyboard, piano, and the guitar. He is the primary producer of Flatbush Zombies and has produced for other popular acts such as Joey Bada$$, James Blake, and more. He also scored the film "The Choice is Yours (2023)" on Paramount+ starring Black Sheep and J Dilla. He's also featured on the track "Candle Flame" by Jungle that has over 50 million streams.

Unlike his alias might suggest, Elliott did not enroll in architecture school and is not an architect by profession.
