One Lou

One Lou is an independent hip-hop artist, writer, and record producer. Having been through his own trials and tribulations -- he now seeks to inspire and encourage those that have faced similar struggles by teaching them that there’s a positive way out of any circumstance. This is further conveyed through his music as you can feel him pour his emotions on wax. This is why the New York native, Colorado-based artist has caught the attention of DJ Drama, This Is 50, Earmilk, Hip Hop Since 1987, Vocal, Underground Hip Hop Blog, and many other distinguished publications. But, he is just getting started -- and ready to let you into his world and show you what comes next.
