A young multi-talented musician, A/Twon has been writing, rapping, engineering, producing, and designing for over 5 years now. Born Antjuan DeCarlos Ratliff on May 27th, 1986 in Tacoma, WA, Antjuan was never a stranger to doubtful peers, a poorly-cultured environment, and nearly NO commercial outlet. Nevertheless, as long as he had the soul of his St. Louis grown family burning in him, he would continue to see no bounds or obstacles... well that's how HE would put it.
Antjuan started writing at an even younger age of only 10 years old. Of course, back then it was only poetry. It still had great significance in his creativity, as well as the subjects he's never afraid to touch in his music. He has developed a voice for the people, as well as the clubs. His songs have moved through situations of malice, animosity, broken homes, betrayal, heartache, insecurities, and even death. A/Twon tries his best to base all his music from true events in order to ensure his audience will relate. You can try listening to a track from his newest mixtape (PLAYed-EP) called "Watcha Wanna Hear" for a perfect example of what i'm speaking of.
"..listening to music is easy.. listening to the RIGHT music is the hard part..." says A/Twon...
He actually doesn't drop himself in that category alone. As he describes, "..it's more of music that makes you feel like more than dancing, I like it to be music that makes you think, and understand.." Some of A/Twon's largest inlfuences have been Tupac, Biggie, Nas, Talib Kweli, Mos Def, Common, Kanye West, 50 Cent, and Ludacris to name a few.
The years have taken the young artist through so many loops of stories with abrupt endings, but only to build character. A father in and out of circulation at a whim, relationships gone sour, friendships led to betrayal, labels with false promises, and then of course, college life. All of the tools needed to build a young man have been given, now we must sit and watch, not to mention support, this new artist, A/Twon....
"..Ya boi is heh, so holla at me ya dig?!...."

Hmmm most would have either given up by now and called me some kind of a fool to try and divert my attention to something more simple..Or they would have tired, failed, and just given up because of the embarrassment they felt..You however are very persistent and as I can also see are very intelligent..You thoroughly analyze ones introduction to proceed with your category of reverse psychology..Impressive..However what would make you think that this sort of a mind game would work with every female?..I mean of course I responded but that doesn’t necessarily mean that I’m intrigued or interested in your motives..It could simply mean that I am a person that likes to debate, always get the last word, or simply prove that my point is far better...And I believe that your using this method of yours to either..“save your face before me”...OR to imply that you need something different and more exciting..A woman that can perhaps challenge the mind as well as the default..
haha, HEY! i quit all that smokin & shiiiitt. WELL AT LEAST TIL JUNE 26TH. but i need a break. haha =] annnnd drivin's goood. i hate driving alone tho =( so im forever tryna find people to go places with me. LMAO. i missss you. how's school? how's liiiife? haha
Just like any other female on here huh?..ahah u make me laugh cuz I do believe that you are just like any other dude out there..All you talked about was my looks and the fact that you were on the phone with a female and she was waste'n ur time..I mean what does that say about you?..And not to mention that when you felt like I "turned you down" you got on that I was just tryna have a clean and mature conversation thing..When you know thats all a buncha bs..
