1 A.M.

1 A.M. is a young but experienced hip-hop artist coming out of Gilroy in California’s Bay Area. 1 A.M. has been making and producing her own hip-hop music since the young age of 17. Having 14 different projects out as of this year, 1 A.M.’s hip-hop seamlessly blends her raw, real life experiences with her worldview. 1 A.M. clearly sits within the realm of hip-hop, but at the same time never limits herself to only hip-hop influences. Her music is able to combine elements from various other genres in order to create her unique sound and convey her message.

Always willing to explore other artistic areas, 1 A.M. not only is a talented lyricist, but also makes her own beats. 1 A.M.’s independence cuts through all of the artistic expression of both her music and the art that accompanies it. Designing her own covers and producing all of her own music, 1 A.M.’s independence creates work that is very unified and particular to her as an artist: all of it flowing from herself from the lyrics, to the beats, to the order, to the cover, and to the very production of the project itself. With her combination of experience, artistic ability, and passion for songwriting, producing, and art in general, 1 A.M. is an artist that needs to be heard by anyone that appreciates raw authenticity and dedication.
