L-Marr
These three words only begin to describe artist and songwriter—L-Marr—formerly known as L-Marr the Great. With his unique perspective on the world and desire to push music to new heights, L-Marr has evolved into an artist unafraid to take risks. Armed with sharp wit, clever wordplay and a penchant for creating memorable hooks, L-Marr emerges as an innovative lyricist.
Born and raised in Dayton, Ohio, L-Marr began writing rhymes and songs at the age of ten after his aunt exposed him to rap music. His desire to express himself through writing became evident when he won several poetry; creative-writing and speech contests as an adolescent. Influenced by the narratives told to him by his uncles and grandparents, as well as his many days in church, L-Marr created songs on his boom box and keyboard. He circulated these songs amongst his friends and classmates, thus garnering respect as an artist.
But it wasn’t until he went to college that he took his craft seriously. His ability to freestyle without effort astounded several peers who encouraged him to pursue music. He recorded songs, pressed CDs and performed for any crowd to spread his message:
“Dream big because you can be anything you want to be as long as you have a plan and a willingness to hustle smarter.”
L-Marr has opened for a host of artists including Monica, Three-6-Mafia, Twista, Nappy Roots and Nick Cannon. After winning several showcases and performing throughout Ohio, Kentucky, Indiana and Michigan; he moved to Atlanta to be at the pulse of the music industry. This transition put him a step closer to achieving his goal of being a global music icon and change agent for years to come.
