Sheila interviews emerging hip-hop artist Lonely Leonard.
Lonely Leonard is ready to present his raw, unfiltered self through his solo album, ‘BLOCKBUSTER’. After a stint as a porn director working with a high profile star, the Phoenix-based rapper has returned to his love of music and draws on his unconventional experiences to tell a story of self-exploitation in the name of fame.
The 11-track album melds drill with EDM and jersey club elements, bringing the listener on a captivating musical journey. Each track shows a different side of Lonely Leonard’s artistry, from catchy hooks to provocative raps. He describes that “listening to BLOCKBUSTER sober is like watching a 3D movie without the glasses on”, conveying how the album dabbles in different genres and lyrical themes to conceptualize the “rainbow-colored tragedy” of the music and porn industries.
