My name is Blake Hicks or 5am , I'm 21 from Atlanta, Ga. People often wonder what inspired me to do music which ultimately lead me into fashion. My music reflects the things I see, or go through . Whether it be a night to remember, a perfect date, or doing a drug for the first time, just life in general . The good , the bad and the ugly. My fashion sense comes from me trying to be different. I was never the tallest, never the most athletic, but I knew some way some how I had to stand out. Then it came to me , FASHION! I made it my goal to try and out dress everyone I came in contact with . You were going to notice me one way or another. Being a fashion enthusiast is quite exciting, people are either going to hate it or love it but it's the thrill of never knowing. You'd never know if someone were looking in amazement or disgust . A lot goes into dressing nice and doing music as well, ultimately money. A lot of things got put on hold when in 2013 my mother and myself became homeless which in terms caused me to have to drop out of college and try to find a job. I always kept music and fashion with me though . No matter if I had $400 or $0.04 in my pockets I'd always look like money. I walked with my head up and kept dreaming. I'm now in a better place and can pursue my passion for music and fashion full fledged. Taking it one step at a time. I wanna inspire every kid who wants to be different to just do it. Someone's says they don't like it? Cool, someone will. Just stay positive, always strive to be a better you and dress like there's no tomorrow.
