A1 AKA1 is the brilliant mind behind the incendiary new release, the hit single “Hold On”. The song, which was written and produced by the artist independently, comes straight from the heart, which is perhaps what separates A1 AKA1 from other contemporary artists.
Growing up an all-star athlete, A1 AKA1 knew from an early age that the way to go forward in life is based heavily on mentality. The way we think affects the way our lives happen, and A1 AKA1 always seeks to give it his all. That’s what he did with his athletic career, and that’s what he’s doing now, in music. He’s there 100% and it shines through in every lyric.
Another aspect that makes him an unusual artist is his focus on unity. Seeing music as a method to bring people together, A1 AKA1 doesn’t cater to any specific audience. Hinging between several genres like hip-hop, rap, and R&B, A1 AKA1’s music is universal. That undefinable quality accounts for the artist’s broad audience and rapidly growing following.
A deeply unique and creative individual, A1 AKA1 is out there trying new things. “Hold On” is only his second recording, and it already stands out from the crowd. It’s missing a baseline on purpose, which only makes it more engaging. With hints of 2Pac, A1 AKA1’s music is one of the best things to come off the scene in recent years.
Taking huge inspiration from his father, whom the artist describes as his number one supporter, A1 AKA1 is using his music to send a message of hope, and tell a story. Going from a fast-paced basketball and football youth to repeated stints in jail, the artist’s obviously seen a lot of facets that life has to offer. And now, he’s here to talk about them…and to tell you you’re not alone.
“Hold On” is a debut single of tremendous promise, one that’s sure to mark the beginning of a long and prosperous career for A1 AKA1.
