L.A. VanGogh

Lamont Anderson a.k.a. L.A. VanGogh grew up in the Chicago suburb of Dolton, IL. Between home and the star-studded ranks of the Chicago open mic scene, he developed his vivid storytelling and candid delivery. Beneath clever uses of language, ear candy production, and fun schemes, you&#39;ll often uncover new meanings with each listen. And yes, you will listen more than once. Although mindful, what makes L.A.&#39;s music so effective is its catchiness. <a href="spotify:track:4dc4CWNr5BcARCkleJK8Ql" data-name="When I Get Rich">When I Get Rich</a>, a song about money, doesn&#39;t just gloss over the indulgence of newfound wealth but considers the responsibility and vulnerability that comes along, all while riding a nasty 808 and glittery synth piano. This kind of contrast characterizes the spectrum of L.A.&#39;s talent. <a href="spotify:album:5zr06ojBru3cBzYQy1evjV" data-name="Be Careful">Be Careful</a> is an ode to choosing words carefully for the sake of one&#39;s mental well-being. Romantic soul cuts like <a href="spotify:album:2HUwAnhdkMaOTbGtniZQZP" data-name="Cause...">Cause...</a> and <a href="spotify:track:3rFTY7y8xP4vcZLSRrDm5e" data-name="& Effect">& Effect</a> show us a more tender VanGogh in tune with his senses. It&#39;s these unique stances and varieties of topics that make him a musical force. Over the past 2 years, L.A. has garnered notoriety between his 2017 drop <a href="spotify:album:13d1Zd4yZgnJ9QriVkkmq1" data-name="Everything Is Subjective: Episode 1">Everything Is Subjective: Episode 1</a> which included the viral single <a href="spotify:track:1NkZ32Kmtl12BL4Ql4fhh4" data-name="Changed My Number, Pt. 2">Changed My Number, Pt. 2</a> and his most recent release <a href="spotify:album:5QjjAqE83Nh9vmqHtgwNwH" data-name="Everything Is Subjective: Episode 2">Everything Is Subjective: Episode 2</a>.
