At the height of the Blog Era, Antwon, a rapper from San Jose, grabbed attention with his distinctive blend of punk and hip hop, merging both worlds and cultivating a dedicated fan base. Born Antonio Williams, Antwon began his career in the early 2010s, and his music has continued to resonate with fans throughout his lengthy career. He says he doesn't create music merely for money; if money were his sole purpose, he would have stopped a long time ago.
Antwon is set to release his new project, "Downtown Tony 2," a follow-up to the first part, which he released in June 2019. I'm thrilled to have the opportunity to speak with Antwon about his music, early life experiences, making music with the late Lil Peep, and more.
