Meet O.T Twizzy

What’s your name and where are you from?

My name is Antwaun Johnson better known as "O.T Twizzy" and I am From Baltimore, Maryland.

Why do you love what you do?

I love What I Do Because I love to create. I love creating a vibe that can stand the test of time, I'm talking generations of time thru music.I remember as a kid being with my mom and hearing "miseducation of Lauryn hill" blasting in the kitchen and feeling nothing but great vibes as a child. Lord knows dinner was bussin after that love was in the air. I mentioned this to simply say everytime I hear Lauryn hill I think of my mom and thee attachment that came with that album my mom played so religiously only brought me great nostalgic memories.Thats the reason I love what I do,The power of music has brought many,many people together in dark times and for me to be a part of that I hold in high regard.

What makes you different?

I'm different because I don't pander to trends, Meaning I'm not gonna go out of my way to jump on a "drill beat" just because it's hot at the moment. "I'm not a drill rapper that's not my lane at all, So I'm not jumping on nothing for clout" I like what I like and I stand on it. Also it really helps fans understand me more as an artist and that's very important to me to have connectability to my consumers. It make me feel great to know I can potentially touch a soul or change the course of someone's life for the good everytime I rap a verse will always be a flex that you cannot Purchase from any establishment.

Where do you see yourself in 5 years?

I see myself working with the youth because nothing is more important than our future. Kids now days need constant reassurance that their future is secure. I wanna work to open up after school programs in Baltimore for students struggling in the classroom, As well as facilities in the inner city that kids can go and be kids without the threatening indications that often surrounds them being the dangerous streets of Baltimore.

What do you want to accomplish in life?

I'll say this, Accomplishments only mean something when u have an audience to acknowledge them.how often do we sit down with ourselves and say "I did everything I was supposed to accomplish this year, I'm proud of myself"? Very few ppl actually ask themselves that because it becomes our norm to succeed and obtain things we never had growing up. So with that being said Just OWNERSHIP! Ownership of anything my name is on.

What do you bring to your industry?

I'm bringing back being a Fan first,You remember being a Fan before becoming a serious artist and being all money driven?, Like just completely letting go anytime you heard something that smacked your ear in a vicious head nod? Thats me as an artist tho, I could be thee biggest artist in the world at the time and if I like something I hear I'm losing it and I'm paying homage immediately. That's what the game has been missing in my opinion. As creative artist we have to stop surprising other creative artist, yes this industry is competitive but I shouldn't feel threatened by your work just because your album is fire, I should feel inspired by that artist that out here raising the bar.

What do you want to be remembered by?

I want to be remembered for being a genuine person, I really care alot for the people I have around me and I often go harder for them than I do for myself and I can't help it my mother raised me the right way, i love you mom
