The midwest and soon to be the rest of the industry worldwide has a bright future ahead when it comes down to the exciting new sounds of music, and Chicago's born and raised native "INFLUENCE" is sure to be at the forefront. "INFLUENCE" was raised on Chicago's Westside which taught him to understand early the importance of hustle. He then moved to Leclaire Courts located within the inner city of Chicago and at the age of 13 started writing which began his quest of music. Even though "INFLUENCE" naturally embraced the contrasts of both music and the arts, 2005 was the year that sparked his true interest placing him on the road of stardom. His first mixtape was titled "Rookie of the Year” which created a good buzz for this future star, but just like the beginning of any dynasty, this mogul is guaranteed to produce some of the hottest music in 2018. Having toured the United States with several music promotional companies to expand his brand, experience as well as excellent talent is on his side to deplete the walks of any competitor.
Now residing in Atlanta Ga, this phenomenoal entrepreneur is an actor, business guru and also the creating owner of Last Apparel Live And Stay True (L.A.S.T.). Future projects like tours, more mixtapes, becoming a brand ambassador for multiple companies and a philanthropy advocate, "INFLUENCE" will be the new face of entertainment embracing everyone’s ears with his phenomenal diverse HIP HOP music!
