Mr. Carlos Hawkins

 

DSC_0728Born in Anniston, Al in the late 80’s, Carlos Hawkins began falling in Love with his music at an early age. It was his outlet, his way of expressing his anger, and his dream.

Coming from a family with music in their background, Carlos began experimenting with instruments like, the organ, Piano, Trumpet, And finally the drums. He fell in love. His first gig was playing the drums for all of the Shady Grove Baptist Church choirs.

His (Big Mama) Sylvia Hawkins, an outstanding member of the church and community, kept him in the church. She told Carlos that if he kept his grades up to her standard, he could play for the church as long as he wanted.

After his grandparents passed away, a savage, rebellious and defiant side of Carlos took over. Raised under the influence of a Drug addicted Mother and a Father who didn’t really have it all, Carlos felt his only choice was to live in the streets the best he knew how. Carlos ran away at the Age of 12.

For about a year, Carlos was taken in by a white family. (Cody Carter’s mom). Got really close to her granddad (bob the repo man), a well known KKK, and managed to still go to school, and play for the church. During this time, or some time after, Carlos recorded his first Song with a guy he called “Farmer”. Better known and Felis Bowens. Their song was called “Slum hung”.

Not long after leaving the people he lived with to move in with who he calls his second mom (Ms.Dot Russell), Carlos began to create a Rap sheet for himself doing all types of things. He eventually stopped going to church all together, and started going in and out of boot camps and homes. ‘’Baby jails and holding cells’’ as he puts it. Finally ending up in Georgia right outside Atlanta in a city called Douglasville. There he lived with his sister. Carlos was only with his sister for a very short period .

After meeting producer lance Matthews, Carlos developed a personal and business relationship with him. Lance eventually gave Carlos his first pack of Beats since he’d been out of jail. Not long after, Carlos had a newborn baby boy, and a hunger for more money. He started working harder, and networking more and more. In the time Carlos has been in Huntsville, Al he’s managed to meet and know some of everybody. Have his own barbershop/studio.

Work with a lot of local artist. Perform at every club in the city. Meet almost every D.J and have several songs in Power radio rotation. Along with several other accomplishments. In hopes that he makes his millions, Carlos plans to tell his story. Bit by Bit. Piece by piece. His single “Don’t look Right” hit the radio in Oct of 2012 and he’s been running every since. Carlos currently lives in the Tennessee Valley, where he has a beautiful woman and a three year old son.

“God willing, one day soon, I’ll be able to give them the life I always wanted”. My Family, friends, and My fans that support me on this journey, #ILuhhYOU. Thank You and Be Blessed.
