Ohio's Chosen One

We are back!!! This time we got some talent all the way from Ohio. This guy right here is a lyrical beast! You guys know us for our honesty and being upfront with artist. Either you have it or you don't. This guy right here, is definitely ready. His name is Lamar Towles. Mark my words, he will be a household name. 

1. What's your stage name.

Lamar Towles 2. How long have you been doing music?

I've always loved music but have been pursuing it for about a year and a half now. 3. What inspired you to start making music?

I'd probably say what inspired me to start music the most was needing a outlet to express some of the things I had going through my head. 4. Who do you look up to in the music industry? Why?

After I hit high school I started listening to J Cole and Kendrick everyday and learning all there verses word for word. I just always liked the fact that they kept a old school vibe, rapped real shit and never tried to turn mainstream while everyone else was changing there sound to stay ahead of the game and losing sight of what real music was. 5. Where are you from? What was it like growing up there?

I'm from Dayton, OH. Wasn't the best city. A lot of drug violence and shootings. It's only gotten worse as time went on, but don't get me wrong I love my city, yet around here man it's literally eat or be eaten. Growing up here everyone had one goal. To get as far away from here as they could and to take their parents with them. 6. What is your ultimate goal making music?

My ultimate goal starting music was always to give someone who is going through something hard or having a tough time something to come back to and let them know like " hey, you aren't alone cause I been there too." With our generation we don't have that type of music that speaks to us anymore. 7. What do you think of the music scene today and what could you contribute to it?

Honestly I think the game today is all about trying to make radio hits, trying to flex, and throw ya money around. Everything is all about going mainstream. No one really makes music you can just sit and vibe out to. Me personally I think I can bring that fresh new sound and that real music people need because everyone sounds the same to me anymore and it's getting crazy when you switch a song and have to actually look down to figure out which rapper it is. 8. What are your thoughts on hurricane Harvey and all the other tragedies going on in America right now?

Shits honestly crazy. It's only so much that we can do as people to help out but you know it never hurts to try and give back anyway that you can. I encourage everyone to try something. Whether it be sending supplies to local places that ship them to the people in need or simply just taking out us cresit or debit card and send a few dollars. 9. Do you have any celebrity crushes? If so, who? 👀

Man I've had the same celebrity crush since I was in the 6th grade. Jhene Aiko will forever have my heart. 10. Where can the people find your music? (Drop all social media links)  

Any and everyone can find all my music on Soundcloud. I'll be expanding to bigger platforms later on down the line. Always got that link in my bios though with the newest song from me. Y'all can find them on my Twitter or Instagram both @ lamar_towles or follow me on Snapchat to stay updated on what I have goin on because I'm always giving a sneak preview of something new some how someway also @ lamar_towles
