The closer you get to the flame, the brighter your fire burns.

Coming back from the brink, Hott LockedN raps like his life depends on it. This urgency defines his own signature style of “slide music,”pairing bold bars and hypnotic hooks. Born and raised in the Southside Atlanta neighborhood of College Park, Hott picked up a microphone in 2017.

One phone call changed his life. T.R.U. A&R advised him to get on a plane with SleepyRose. The next day, he found himself in Los Angeles and recorded thirteen songs with 2 Chainz and signed to T.R.U.(TheReal University).His “slide”style goes worldwide on the first single from Looking Like It Records, Sleepy Rose’s “Shoot It Out” [feat. 2 Chainz, WORL, & Hott LockedN].

“Coming from College Park, people don’t believe you have a future,” he says. “However, I make it happen. I want to show everybody it’s possible for you to do whatever you believe in."
