Featured artist: Slim Gwynn - true definition of a quiet storm
As part of our ongoing "Rap's New Generation" series, today we sat down with the upcoming underground artist Slim Gwynn from Baltimore to talk about his recent music, his upcoming projects, his career advice and his overall experiences being in the music industry and he did not disappoint...
Thanks for taking the time to talk with us, Slim Gwynn! Let's go back to the beginning of your career. How did you decide to become an artist?
Slim Gwynn: I started freestyling at 16-17 and realized my real talent.
Somebody heard me singing one my songs, before I released it, and asked me who was I listening to. I told him it was me and he told that it sounded hard and authentic without even hearing the beat. At that point I knew to just stay true myself and my sound.
What about concerts? Do you play live?
yes
Best punchline you ever wrote?
Can't see me coming John Cena with the ghillie out
What are you currently working on? Did you release something in the past?
I just released a project on christmas titled "Work in Progress".
Last but not least: Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
I'm not really interested in them.
Any last words?
S/O to all baltimore artists. Rip G rock and Lor scoota cuz they paved the way.
Where can people follow you to stay up-to-date?
