Steven Lamont (#lamonte)

Rapper Steven Lamont welcomes the Spring season with new music on his latest project “Hit Factory Vol. 1: I’m No Saint”. This new release comes after the summer playlist “Trifecta” and the heartfelt “Sincerely EP”. Hit Factory Vol. 1 entails a wave of upbeat productions complementing his unique flows. Paying tribute to his friends he’s lost in the song Heaven Gates while praying for better days while showing his humble beginnings and his current status in his journey in the track Something Outta Nothing. This new project contains great music for all to enjoy and relate to in today’s rap culture. - BRASH MAG!

I'll keep this one brief. Why? Well, sometimes it's better to let the bars speak for themselves and just wash over you. Now, Steven Lamont (#lamonte) has been on an evolutionary pace since he first appeared on SOTB via a loosie and some Profound Assholes discussion on his shit. He's always had bars and the like, but like Drizzle said, he lacked something that fully held your attention...but he always was ready to blow the fuck up.

Fast forward two years (almost one year after Hit Factory Vol. 1) and Steven Lamont has gotten everything in line. His bars are even more hard-hitting and lyrical, his ear for production (and his own production as Fisherman Cap) has evolved to make sure you pay attention to the entire product, and his guest spots (including a scene-stealing one from NishoSoul) complement his project versus take it over. He gives us a look into his mindset and mentality without becoming self-absorbent, so that's definitely a plus. Overall, it's great to see Steven continuously evolve as an artist. And he's from the DMV originally, so double win.
