Life and Times of a Dope Broke Artist (2012-2014)
Initially, Atari's aesthetic was inspired by movie, "American Psycho" and Monroe would perform in dress shirts and ties. This all-business, often boom-bap based persona is known as "Shooter Sinatra" or "American Psycho Atari". In August of 2012, Atari independently released the initially intended debut album "The Life & Times of a Dope Broke Artist". The album was released for free download, as the budget did not have room to clear samples/beats in order to make it available retail. While the album was received well among listeners, it lacked in promotion. In January of 2013, Monroe submitted song "Mind Activation" to the first GrammyAmplifier competition in which RZA was the curator (judge). Monroe received solid support getting through the first round with nearly 1,500 fan votes becoming officially eligible for "curation". Although Atari is gender-fluid, The Shooter SInatra persona was presented as a Man

Ataripocalypse Era (2018-2020)
In 2017, Atari began displaying a different persona through a much more Glam aesthetic as well as incorporating such themes into his music and artwork. The Glam culture and Goth culture always greatly influenced the admittedly "Eclectic" artist. Outside of Music, Atari draws inspiration from Marilyn Monroe, Elvira, and Kelly Bundy among other Glam and Goth figures. This side of the AtariStorm would go on to become known as the "Glam God".

Atari released their debut retail single "American Psycho" in November of 2017 and second single "Eclectic" on Christmas day.
