Bronx rapper/vocalist French Montana keeps the streets on lock with songs celebrating the thug life.
Born Karim Kharbouch in Rabat, Morocco, he moved to the U.S. as a child.
French Montana has recorded street anthems like "Choppa Choppa Down" and "Shot Caller."
He was formerly on Akon's Konvict Music before Diddy's Bad Boy Records picked him up in 2011.
His name is a spin on his French/Moroccan heritage and the Scarface movie character Tony Montana.
