“Be real because they gone hate you anyway.” This is the message Los Angeles artist $way gives to the young rappers following in his footsteps. In an industry that can easily overlook talented individuals, it is important to give audiences something that other artists cannot. $way believes this something is himself or authenticity.
This realness is present in his popular songs “Same Energy”, “Temporary”, and “Thinkin about you”. Regularly touching on his tough childhood growing up in Landover, Maryland and the challenges of being raised in the streets, $way presents a storytelling ability and sound that is not found in many.
Now, he hopes other independent and young artists can learn from his journey and that his commitment to realness will continue to bring the success he has seen up to this point. His songs have gained traction on streaming platforms and YouTube bringing in views, streams, and a large social media following.
