Newcentz' fight with adversity has molded his heart into a chilling organ.  Growing up in West Baltimore, life has not been the easiest for this budding artist.  It all started with Newcentz being incarcerated at 16 years old, serving a three and a half year sentence.  And then recently the 23 year old artist just lost his friend to a senseless murder at a Baltimore lounge.  Putting all of this pain into his music is what will push his progression.  The end goal with a career in music is for his three daughters, so that they don't have to live with the battles that he has faced.  Enjoy!

Heart So Cold (Prod. JRIPP)

As many of you may know there's been civil unrest in Baltimore, and primarily in the city's Westside neighborhood where there's been heavy rioting.  Growing up in the Westside of Baltimore isn't the easiest, with the area being stricken with poverty and little to no opportunity to grow up out of the struggle.  This was evident in Newcentz' last release "Heart So Cold", where Newcentz elaborated on dealing with a ton of adversity and doesn't know if his heart would ever thaw out.  Today Newcentz' releases "Handstand", which is a more upbeat record.  He wanted to release this to lift the spirits of those in his community, in hopes that the negative light will leave the city.  What better way then to hit the club, have a couple drinks, and find a nice girl that's able to handstand perfectly!  #Pray4Baltimore #Justice4FreddieGray
