I always enjoy profiles on music artists because the music artists themselves already give so much of who they are in their albums, so if a writer can give more knowledge to the reader than the artist themselves, I think it is worth the read. “A Young Biracial Rapper From DC Is the Next Big Thing” is the title of an informative profile sharing the rapper Logic’s story from childhood to his recent rise to stardom.
To summarize, Logic is a biracial rapper that looks white. He has a troubled background involving gangs, drugs and racism, however, he does not glorify those topics in his music. Instead, Logic has been implementing Sci-Fi themes in his hip hop album concepts, has described himself as the nerd of hip hop, likes to play the Rubik’s Cube while rapping and of course, loves the art of rapping. I feel like the profile does a good job of blending Logic’s troubling and tough past that is similar to a lot of rappers, with his newfound fame and persona that some hip hop fans find hard to connect with.
