Meet Iceburg Flacko
What’s your name and where are you from? I'm Iceburg Flacko and I were born in Riverside, CA then was in Austin, TX for 18 yrs. Back in Cali now tho. Why do you love what you do? Well, my whole family has a background in music and so I naturally was drawn to music. Plus I have a connection with music and believe music is the one true energy. Everything travels in music. Plus I’m honestly talented at it. What makes you different? Well, I was just born different and idk why but I Am. I went thru a lot for me and in a lot of places and I feel very connected to things and so I like to use music to express everything I’ve seen, been through, that broke me and helped me grow. Also, me having lived in different places I have my own style and flow as well as strong energy. Where do you see yourself in 5 years? Man, it’s crazy to try to think like that. I honestly don’t think that far ahead productively. But I do believe I will have brought a new energy to music and something enjoyable, relatable, and truthful. Also, have a nice following, and my brand is profitable. But most of all I see a better me and a wiser soul thru spreading my music and tightening my inner circle. What do you want to accomplish in life? Well, I would love to make a living thru music and be able to take care of my ppl thru opportunities and persistence. And to use music to talk to all those out there still living those words I speak. Whether it be good, bad, sad, litty, scary whatever just enjoy it and connect to it and let it do for u whatever it’s meant to do. That’s the best part. Music has literally saved me many many times over. What do you bring to your industry? I bring a really dope energy and a real one no better yet a genuine one. A different sound that keeps u tuned in. I love performing and that energy u get back it’s pure. But I really think my sound is unique and real and is something that people will connect and rock with. What do you want to be remembered by? Man, that’s a good question that I took a little bit to really answer. In general, I definitely want to be remembered by my music because it’s the realest, deepest, purest part of me and want the world to bang my music and live on through the vibration of my music. That would be amazing. But on a real level I want to use my music platform to make things I think are important in life I want to improve those things. Give back to life and our future. Like with kids because that’s where it starts. Some of the things they are capable of these days is just scary. I want to start a non-profit for kids to help with the community and be a part of something positive as well as help them in developing any talent there interested in and push them to that. Get them excited that they can draw or dance or sing it doesn’t matter just get them the resources they need u know. And the last but the really most important thing is I wanna help raise awareness and really help people that struggle with mental heating. It is so important and a lot of people don’t realize how much it really is.

Meet Keily Edwards
What’s your name and where are you from? My name is Keily Edwards! I was born in Sherman Oaks in San Fernando Valley. My mom got remarried when I was 11 and we moved to the Inland Empire. I lived in Rancho Cucamonga until I was 18 then moved back to LA. Why do you love what you do? Making music fuels my soul. It’s an outlet for every single emotion we endure as humans. It’s how I learned what passion was as a child. As a kid growing up in a troubled household , emotions were extremely overwhelming because I wasn’t able to process situations. I was always alone so I turned to doing karaokes on my mom’s desktop with all my free time. It was an escape for me. Music brings me to a different state of mind. It’s almost like I’m in a different reality when I’m creating sound. I’m able to transfer my trauma into a masterpiece that evokes different feelings from every individual that listens to it. What makes you different? I feel like with living in LA, there’s select people out here who are truly genuine. It sucks to say but some of the people I’ve encountered seem to have a malicious feeling behind their eyes. A blank expression of greed or malice intent. All of the real friends I have made out here have at least a few stories of people leeching off them by getting close and then taking what they want. I stand strong on loyalty and always keeping it real even if that means you’re compromising another person’s feelings. Some people need to hear the truth. Sometimes I do too! That’s exactly why I am so grateful for my friends too! We all keep each other in check and on the right path. I am heavy on always trying to remain a good person regardless of my current state of mind. I never want to upset people I care for. I always want to be able to take accountability for my mistakes even when my ego is telling me I am not in the wrong. I try to express a lot of who I am in my music, whether that be my morals, point of view or my experiences. I want people to genuinely feel my music and learn about themselves through my sound as well. Where do you see yourself in 5 years? I see myself on billboards and with a fan base that loves what I make. I see myself touring all over the world while inspiring all different groups of people. None of my friends look the same as one another and my listeners probably don’t either. I love that! Regardless of your appearance too, everyone is unique to themselves. No one can be replaced because everyone has a different soul. What do you want to accomplish in life? I want to establish my career and fulfill the dreams I had as a kid which still remain. I want to make my mom and brother proud. I want everyone to see my potential become reality . What do you bring to your industry?I bring a unique look, sound and vibe. I bring hard work and dedication with my chin tilted up at all times. I bring a spark and edge that is unique to me. What do you want to be remembered by? Of course I want to be remembered by my music but I also really want to be remembered by my character. I hope people will remember me by the advice I give and my nurturing care for those I love.

Meet J-Nasty
My name is J’Quan Towns but my stage name is J-Nasty and I’m from CT Connecticut where every artist hate on one another also where the music industry won’t let us in the door for nothing so we must kick it down. I’m 30yrs old I been doing music for the past 16yrs now but started doing music when I was 14. I just hit a million streams on Spotify and my most streamed song is Hot 8 At 8 Hot 93.7 Soundtrack streaming over at 200k. I love what I do because it’s very therapeutic where I can express how I feel, talk about things that people can relate to and touch people souls. Then I love it to help change lives, to put smiles on peoples faces, to really make a difference in the culture things that I have to offer to the game. I love what I do because I got to work with some of my favorite music industry people like Cassidy who I did a song with and co-signed me, Hitman Holla where I did a cypher and I got to shoot the video with him, Dj Flippp where I drove from CT Connecticut all the way to California to make a hit record with him called 40 Hrs cause it took me 40 Hrs to get to Cali, Legendary Dj Ron G who put me on 7 of his mixtapes where I landed on 2 front covers one with Young Thug and Tory Lanez then he got to promote an market me for a good 3 months, also the hot 93.7 radio station team was playing my songs on the radio several times and Burn Poe who did a skit for my song called OverNight that just hit over 100k streams. What makes me different is my story on how I grew up in DCF, taken from my mom when I was 8yrs old because of her smoking crack, just now finding and meeting my dad after 30 years. I’m a true artist that makes real subtitle, concept, storytelling, substance vibing life experience music that’s what makes me different is my story alone it’s too much pain to talk about plus I have 9 siblings on my mom side so we all have a story to tell including my mom since we all grew up in DCF. In the next 5 years I can see myself on top of the world healthy doing so much stuff weather it’s business, music, film, production, label, land and more. I wear many hats to do what needs to be done that most won’t do because most people ain’t build for this. I can see myself giving back to those in need, being a advocate to the kids that’s in DCF to guide them in the right direction show them it’s never to late because look at me I came from the same place and was able to make it out so if I did you can to. Things I want to accomplish in life is for me to be a better me, to work with more industry people, to build a bigger following/brand, get paid to do shows, to get verified on social media, to keep making hit songs, performing at festivals continue to be the best, singing artist, producers, DJ’s and more. What I bring to my industry is a new sound, look, authenticity, products, quality, content, subtitle, money and culture. I want to be remembered by my legacy an all the hard work that I put in for the last 16yrs an counting, the 1k songs that I put out into the world and the work ethic that you need to succeed game/business.
