West Coast artist/producer Locksmith has been putting in work since 2003 when he made it to MTV’s MC Freestyle Championship. Which brought him out of the underground scene and gave him regional buzz. It wasn’t until 2011 that he kicked off his own solo career and toured with big names like Joe Budden, R.A. the Rugged Man, and Ski Beatz. Now he’s wrapping up his headlining tour for his recently released album “Olive Branch.”In this interview, Locksmith talked about what it’s like to be in the game for this long, and how the industry has changed. He shared his lowest moments with us: how he didn’t give enough time to mourn the death of his mom, and how over-thinking has been his number one hurdle.Each and every Wednesday we’ll be uploading a brand new interview with a guest we feel that you should know about.
