Baltimore Hip Hop's Online Destination for Self-Made Entrepreneurs

Matt Aaron - "Higher Power"

Newcomer to hip-hop, producer and lyricist Matt Aaron continues to represent his city through his latest project, “Somebody From Atlanta. The EP is a versatile project that combines the culture and style of Atlanta all wrapped into one. Matt Aaron plans to take over the city by showing his range as an artist and to give everyone a taste of his versatility.

After being engulfed in music since he was a child, Matt decided to pick up the pen at age 16. He always knew music was a part of him, and he finally figured out how to put his passion to work. He put up some of his music on social media and gained a good response from his peers, so he decided to keep going with it. After rapping over other producer’s beats, he grew tired of searching for beats that didn’t quite fit his sound. Soon after graduating high school, he began producing original beats.

Matt grew up around music, his father did music and was at one point, a band instructor. His brothers also played in the band, but he always knew he’d want to take his music to another level. Influenced by Atlanta natives Outkast, T.I., Ludacris, and Usher, Matt plans to be the next pioneer for his city. His inspiration stems from just making music that people can relate to.

As a rapper from the suburbs, his lyrics aren’t the typical words you hear from many hip hop artists. In April 2013, he released a cover to Kendrick Lamar’s Money Trees and gained popularity across Soundcloud and Social Media.When asked about his motivation in music he said, “Music is fun and the fact I can creatively speak on topics and tell stories, and inspire others is what gives me the motivation to do what I love.” Matt Aaron is all about making hits that everyone can vibe to. He hopes to do collabs with artists such as Big Sean, 2Chainz, Raury and Chance the Rapper and he is on the path to do just that. One day, he hopes to be put in the category of the legends that once inspired him to pursue a career in music today. Matt Aaron will continue to impress the hip hop industry as he perfects his performance, production, and power to put his city on the map with relatable lyrics and an innovative sound.
