SOUNDCLOUD: Lil17

Cedone A. Frazier Born in Allentown, Pennsylvania, and later making his home in Charlotte, North Carolina, Lil17 has been immersed in the world of music since the tender age of 11 or 12. His journey began at a summer camp where he recorded his very first song. By 13, he made his official debut on SoundCloud, setting the stage for a decade-long pursuit of artistry that has shaped him into the dynamic musician he is today.

Drawing inspiration from the 2000s hip-hop scene, Lil17 a.k.a “Seventeen” finds himself heavily influenced by artists like Lil Wayne, T-Pain, Drake, and Rick Ross. However, his musical roots run deeper, reaching back to legends like Jay-Z, Big L, and Big Daddy Kane. These artists have not only guided his sound but ignited a passion for the genre. He also admires the courage of female artists who have paved the way, adding to his diverse musical influences.

What sets Lil17 apart is the legacy of music that flows through his veins. One of his oldest cousins wrote and produced iconic tracks, including "Poison" by Bell Biv DeVoe and "I Wanna Sex You Up" by Color Me Badd, as well as contributing to Michael Jackson's "Blue Gangsta" and "A Place With No Name." This familial legacy established a high bar that motivated him to carve his own path in music, free from the shadows of expectation.

With tenacity and dedication, Seventeen has spent nearly a decade building his music career from the ground up. He understands that the journey is not merely about competition but rather about personal growth and artistry. Every day, he works tirelessly to improve himself, striving to be the best artist he can be—not just for himself but for the world and for hip-hop as a whole.

Lil17's story is one of resilience and faith, with God at the center of his journey. The road to success has been filled with challenges, but his steadfast determination and commitment to his craft drive him to continually push forward. As he evolves into an influential voice in the music industry, he remains focused on his roots, appreciating the struggles and joys that have brought him to this pivotal moment in his career.

With every song, Seventeen invites listeners into his world, a place where hard work, authenticity, and passion converge. As he looks to the future, he is excited to share his music and story with the world, proving that with perseverance and heart, dreams can become reality..

The name Lil17 holds profound significance for me, woven deeply into the fabric of my life and my journey in music. I chose this name in honor of my grandmother, who passed away on January 16, 2017—my birthday. Her absence was a transformative moment for me, and the following day marked the beginning of a new chapter in my life, with the number 17 symbolizing resilience and progress. It serves as a constant reminder that while we face loss and challenges, there's always a new day ahead. 

In my journey, 17 represents more than just a number; it embodies the spirit of moving forward. Life is fast-paced and often unpredictable, so I strive to focus on what lies ahead. I believe that every moment matters, and through my music, I want to encourage my listeners to embrace each day with dedication and purpose. In a world where tomorrow isn't guaranteed, I urge everyone to put their best foot forward, cherish their experiences, and give their all while they can. This philosophy drives me to create and share music that resonates, reminding us all to keep pushing ahead and to find strength in our journey.
