What inspired your artist name? And where did you get the name from?
Frat brothers gave me the name. Going through my process or whatever, I was the sixth person in Line (You know how black frats work). My frat bruh who stood behind me (my seven) kept calling me Lon6z everyday till I just accepted it. Bout time I fully join the whole campus start calling me Lon6z.
Do you have any other special talents, such as acting, etc.?
Beside making music, I am a certified barber without license, I can still can play basketball professional, I can tumble (flip), make money from the most unimaginable ways.
When did you start doing music? And when did you start taking it seriously? Be as detailed as you’d like.
I been making music since The Clipse grinding music video. I terrorized lunch room table on the daily, breakfast, lunch, dinner, even after basketball practice. I definitely been writing raps since my momma was banging Whodini in the basement. BTW that’s the group that sing Friends & Freaks Come Out At Night. I been taking it serious since I moving to LA. But now it my time.
