BIOGRAPHY:
Up and coming Rap Artist LaVance D. Clayton better known as "Lace", was born on May 30, 1984 in Hartford , Connecticut . He was raised in Connecticut and later moved to Lithia Springs , Georgia in 2000 to stay out of trouble. Lace has been a music lover since a child. He thought of himself as being a Producer, but never thought he would actually be putting words behind the beats. His influence for music is people. Realizing that people always come to him to vent, he feels as though he is a mentor and saves people from making bad decisions. He states “music helps everyone in some way, everyone makes mistakes, but we all live and learn from them”! He would rather not discuss his mistakes, but emphasizes, “YOU SHOULD ALWAYS THINK BEFORE YOU REACT”!
Encountering several negative endeavors throughout the course of his life, he has still managed to stay focused. Almost being murdered by his mother twice with due to drug related problems, he was temporarily homeless during High School and slept in a school bus determined to finish school. Losing his Grandmother February 13 1998 was another hurdle. Despite these triumphs, there were some positive highlights in life! His beautiful baby boy was born on August 21, 2004! His older brother, who is also his mentor, became a teacher and is currently attending college to receive his Doctrine degree. By his brother simply letting him know that he was proud of him made a huge impact on his life. Lace states “someone saying they are proud of you helps a lot, especially when it didn’t start out that way”!
A niche for rapping was found in 2001 on the school bus in Omaha , Georgia ( Stewart County ). This was a very small town where they didn’t have much knowledge about up North music. The first thing he recited was a verse from Mobb Deep and everyone started cheering him on. This was his starting point and he has been rocking crowds ever since!
Lace has definitely made his mark in the streets of Atlanta , Georgia . Rocking
every open mic available, he is no stranger to the stage! Not only does he participate, HE
WINS! Just to give a brief rundown, this up and coming Artist won 5 weeks straight at The Poole Palace in Bank head, GA, opened up for T-Mo Goodie in Alabama New Years of 2006, won first
place in an open mic contest at Studio 7 in Atlanta , GA , opened up for Yola the Great at
Café Red Train in Marietta , GA , opened up for Kadillac Boyz, hosted an open mic at
Club Xpose in Stone Mountain , GA and won a showcase at Sports line in Marietta , GA !
Winning the showcase at Sportsline gave him the opportunity to be on DJ Scream’s and
DJ Kamillion’s mix tapes and an article in Street Report magazine. With no further ado,
He has definitely earned his bragging rights!
He will be releasing a compilation album in 2008. The album includes a mixture of his hottest works. It shows versatility and has something that every crowd can relate to. With no complaints, it can easily be expressed that he has perfected his music! His compilation album is being distributed from the North to the South, SO BE ON THE LOOK OUT! Lace’s fan base is increasing rapidly! His irresistible swagger keeps the ladies attention, while his unique lyrical content impresses the guys! With all this being said, this is only the beginning. With his older brother and his
son being his motivation, he works twice as hard towards his goal, which is to become a
Platinum Artist. As we can all see, he is well on his way!
This 24 year old entertainer, labeling himself an Artist, not just a Rapper is exactly what the music industry has been waiting for! With an inexplicable style of music and an extraordinary stage presence, he definitely stands out! Lace is NO QUESTION the rap industry’s sigh of relief!
