Mississippi’s own Nick Corleon

L3GACI had a chance to send over some questions to Nick Corleon, A little rough around the edges……very talented….up and coming artist… out of Mississippi. With so much passion and authenticity to give, we talked about his new single, “Proud 2 Be a Smoker”, and the journey he has been on so far.

Growing up, he states, “I always loved music, especially hip-hop, even though I really didn’t understand it all, because I was so young, but as I got older I understood what the songs were about”. Having the culture of music around him, using artist such as Eminem and Ludacris as inspiration, he states, “Artist like Eminem and Ludacris and the list goes, made me wanna rap” . So the response to who would you love to work with was, “Ludacris, because I like his rapping style and how he can make a crazy foolish song, but next week make a serious song and still keep his respect.”

With so much Passion & dreams for his music, youtube as his outlet, with over 3700 views, he says, “I would love to see the day everyone knows about my music. Searching for my music on their own and fans asking for more music.” confident in his music, “.. I’m not trying to sound cocky, but my music is really good and I think if I had the right exposure, everyone else would think so too” To be sure his music is heard, plans to go on tour this summer and a new mix tape available on datpiff.com. helps!
Shows lined up in Miami, Panama city, Memphis and Alabama, his team “Ignant Enterprise” have a lot of work planned this summer,and they are on a grind to get paid.

Sharing a few moments with us on his past show he writes, “(haha) Well one performance in Texas , my team and I were performing, and I took my shirt off , threw it in the crowd , and the girls started fist fighting over it. I was like Whoah, wow this is crazy!”

“Never Ever Ever Ever give up. The people that made things breathe air just like you, did so, that we are examples for others” -Nick Corleon

In a few closing words, we discussed what their L3GACI in the making would be from their music, and it was said, “They should gain fun and relaxation. I want people to play my music when they feel upset or mad. I want my music to make people have fun and just chill and be laid back.” Hoping to put himself and his style of culture on the map he states…”I’m from Mississippi and there is not a lot of exposure down here, so it’s harder to get your name out there, because many labels don’t look to [mississippi] sip for talent. They’re in popular places like ATl and LA. I wanna get put on so that I can show that Mississippi has So Much More Talent than people think. That would inspire the younger artist to try to keep pursuing their Dream”
