Less than four years ago, he was the hilarious, snotty nosed 13-year-old boy next door, a teenager born in Brooklyn, NY and raised in Queens, NY with a world of talent and big dreams, fueled by the artist he grew up with. Even before the age of 17 years old Antwon LaCharm had a major gift in music, "I remember when I was in junior high and I would be in music class I would go on the keyboard and just start making beats and my boys would be like yo this dude is nice" says LaCharm. Now, in the process of releasing his first solo mixtape "First Time" he is ready to make a name for himself. "The reason I chose First Time for the name of my first mixtape," he says, explaining the title. "Is because this mixtape is gonna be my fondest memory like my First Time, you see I didn't know the outcome of the situation but I knew it would be good. So I'm hopin the same for this mixtape." Antwon has been rapping since the age of 12 years old, it wasn't till recently he started singing and when asked why he replys, "I never had much confidence in my singing until one of my friends heard me sing saying that I should incorporate it in my raps, and when I sang for more people they would say the same thing."

Though Antwon seems like a heart-throb with a lot of success headed his way he also has some burdens he carries around with him whenever he does shows, "Growing up I never had that older figure to look up to, or the parent coming to the games cheering me on, till this day whenever i do my shows i go alone wishing my mother or father could make it but they work hard trying to make ends meet for me and my siblings"

And he doesnt let that stop him from what he has his mind set on doing, he continues to progress at everything he does. He has an interview show on YouTube, a promotional team for his events and much more ... THIS BOY IS A PROBLEM!!!

"First Time" is his first mixtape, should be released in Feb of 2009.

"The vibe I hope to get back from this first mixtape is a positive one from both males and females, says the humble LaCharm.This past year I've linked up with so many great people that it's brought me a new perspective on music, so I'm thankful for this."

Though this is his solo mixtape he will have artist from his music group featured onto his mixtape and many other artist outside of his camp. Most of the beats on his mixtape will be produced by him and his close friend Multi-Platinum producer Mr. Fingaz ("Holla Holla" & POV City Anthem). The mixtape contains songs of the genre, such as Hip-Hop & R&B.

When asked what to expect from his first mixtape LaCharm says, "Well i know they say third times the charm but I like to think if i give it to you right the first time, then you'll be coming back for more" and laughs

In addition to his blooming musical career, Antwon LaCharm is also branching into acting, no word on his first television debut as of yet.

"I always wanted to be on television acting, growing up watching television shows like "Martin", "The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air", and Family Matters" and "A Different World" I always wanted to be a part of them. Plus now days there aren't a lot of black sitcoms anymore and I want to get the chance to star in my own sitcom, maybe a modern day Martin/Fresh Prince of Bel-Air type of show."

Antwon also wants be a part of the new Rocawear men's campaign. The campaign's concept "I Will Not Lose" celebrates those who have overcome adversity daily to continue to thrive and make the world a better place. Antwon's participation in this campaign would show that he believes in the campaign motto: "Every success story no matter how big or small we all share a common thread and attitude."

Antwon is involved in charity work. He has been an incredible supporter of "R.A.W." also known as "Right Against Wrong" which is recognized for it's pioneering work in teen's.

On his mixtape, Antwon LaCharm is shocking his audience with his musical capability. A handsome young man with more musical moxy than most seventeen year olds, he has constructed one of the finest debut discs in years.
