Please introduce yourself real quick…
I am an 18 year old artist from Lexington, North Carolina. I am the best rapper alive.
What do you do?
I create music in a genre that consists of metal rap with a punk aspect. I mainly work with local artists but I do believe I will work with larger artists in the future. I have performed in New York, Greensboro, Jamestown, and Charlotte. I create music that is timeless, or at least I aim to.
What´s new right now?
I am working on many singles in the upcoming future and I’m trying to aim on the building a following side of being an artist. Visuals with my brother @kamillmatic are coming soon and more are going to be shot in the near future. I’ll be performing in Atlanta on the 18th of January and Charlotte on the 19th. My instagram is @nascaraloe and I’m an icon so feel free to stare.

Do you have insights on how to grow your audience on soundcloud that you want to share with our audience?
Share your music with everyone, but not to the point where it becomes spam-like. If you have the talent and it can be heard through your music, that should be enough to bring a crowd. A little help never hurts though, buy a repost and support a bigger artist every once in a while.

How do you personally discover new music?
Artists usually contact me and we become friends if we enjoy one another’s music. Otherwise, I just scroll through soundcloud listening to new tracks everyday. Lastly, I might hear a track played by a friend and like it and ask that friend to put me on.

Once you discovered new music, do you tell others about the new music/artist you discovered? If yes, how exactly?
“I love to share music that I enjoy. If I think a track sounds nice I might tweet about it or post it on my Instagram story so the people that follow me will also go and support that track as well.
