Ralph "Lawren" Arteaga dropped his first 5-track EP as a Christian hip-hop artist in 2015 titled, HVNTS (have nots). He connected with GordonBeats a year prior who worked on a few tracks for Social Club Misfits. Not only did a track off his debut come from the partnership, but Marty from Social Club Misfits became a mentor to him. Together, Lawren began to realize his potential, afflence in the genre, lyrical skillset and fine tune his "I just want to do what God's called me to do" mentality. The feedback was positive enough to gain a spot on Rapzilla's Freshman 2015 class. 

Fast forward a year to his second project, Pieces. Lawren lyrically describes the pieces within his life which helped mold him into the remarkable and skilled young man as he stands today. He also explains how the broken pieces were perfectly pieced together by Jesus standing currently as a firm believer strong in his faith. 

Lawren is set to release his third project in three years titled, As You Pass Go in the second quarter of 2017.
