Biography
Forever rising above the margins that have held him back, L-FRESH AKA The LION exceeds when facing challenges most of us shrink away from.
21 year old FRESH, started writing raps accompanied by a rat that used to stare at him through a hole in his ceiling. FRESH says “One thing that strikes me as universal is that we all go through struggles and hardship. While the causes may be different, we all feel the same. I bring the different elements of struggle together in my music – I’m looking at the what’s common in hardship and the different way’s we rise above it. We all have the tools to realize our innate power. Real power is ultimately within the chambers of the mind. We need to harness it, release it in a way that is constructive for all people. For me, that’s what music is all about.”
He took on the name “The Lion” after having a vision meditating at the Golden Temple in India. In the vision he saw a Lion standing amongst a hundred thousand people.
