MAS: Loc Saint- Winner of the Make A Star Favorite Male Solo Artist contest, tell us how you got started as a rap artist.

LOC SAINT: I started writing poetry and raps at the age of 12 after a lot of crazy experiences I'd had in my past, and just feeling the need to get them off of my chest as a way of venting. From that I started getting recognition by my peers for the raps and poems I was writing and I developed a passion for it overtime.

MAS: Tell us something random

LOC SAINT: about me...... Well I would have to say what I have been commented on most by my fans is the fact that not only is my music relatable and real, but it reaches across to fans of many genres and bridges the gap that separates fans from having a connection with the artist. This fact totally disregards the music industries way of marketing to the masses. I have fans from ages 16 to 45, I have fans that are die hard rock fans and can't stand the commercial rap music of today yet find my music appealing and connect with me. I think this is what separates me from other music artists in my genre.
