Discography
Lynette Lajuan Washington, (born April 9th, 1990) a Decan 2 Aries, better known by her stage name Lust DreadLock Monsta, is an American hip hop recording artist from Temple Hills, Maryland, birthplace Washington, Dc. Also the first baby born at Providence Hospital in the Maternity Ward. Grew up around, Temple Hills, Suitland, District Heights, Clinton, Fort Washington. At the age of 15 Lust began rapping, but she started off making beats on her playstation 2, then switched to rapping because she felt she could make a bigger impact on the world with her chosen words. When Lust was 17 she entered a rap contest with Big Tigger on WPGC 95.5 which she had to be 18 and older. But she entered anyway to see if she had what it takes to win it all for a grand prize of $1,000, and a chance to record her rap with Big Tigger. The judges had to give away the prize to the runner up because of her age. Lust who represents the LGBT community comes from a religious background of Christianity from her grandfather's side of the family, who is a Reverend known as Rev. William Hill. Her grandfather originally from Va, her mother originally from Washington, Dc, and her Father Anthony Washington, who is a DJ, is originally from Maryland.
At 20 Lust and her father took a trip up to Manhattan New York for a music conference with all the major record labels at the time. She sat down with Anthony Rich, an A&R at Jive Records who gave her good positive feedback on her music but wasn't interesting in signing her. Lust still kept her faith and continued to practice more and more each day. Today she's known for her crazy punchlines and soft voice mixing rapping and singing that has been gaining more and more exposure throughout the summer of 2014-2015. Just when you started to hear crickets in the lane of female rappers, Lust storms out with hot remixes off of Chris Brown's 'Loyal' single, Fetty Wap "Trap Queen", Big Sean "Blessings" off her latest mixtape; "Tongue Of A God". Which is also created the artwork for. She puts the word art in artist. Next to the exploding artists out of D.M.V area, Shy Glizzy, Fat Trel, and Mr. Poet himself, Wale, Tabi Bonney, Lust definitely the next up. The rapper has been spitting rhymes since the age of 15 and still has a sharp creative mindset. From first making beats to creating lyrics that give the beats a better understanding of Lust background and wavy sound, the rapper herself has made a lane of her owns. Dreaded, tattooed, phenomenal lyrics, and her punk rock swag has the rap game in total shock. Art is also a passion of Lust and a great inspiration, most favorited artwork is tattoos, and illustrations.Her musical influences that made a big impact on her rap career has been from the late great Tupac Shakur, Biggie Smalls, and Lil Wayne, Gucci Mane, Jay-Z, Bizzy Bone, Bone Thugs N Harmony and rock artist Otep Shamaya. But although these artists are some of the world's greatest, Lust looks up to her own music and art for inspiration on the creative plane. After breaking through a difficult time, going through rough break ups, and court cases getting felony charges with her ex, back in 2012. Lust is really blessed to be able to express her feeling all in her music today.
Keeping her faith and focus, and still dropping upcoming hits being a versatile artist, nothing will keep the young talented rap star from dominating the game and inspiring young people to stay focus on their goals and dreams.
