De La Ghetto will never forget where he came from. That’s probably why his artist name, “De La Ghetto” literally means “from the ghetto.” “What I always try to interpret with my artistic name, De La Ghetto, is just because you’re from the hood, doesn’t mean you’re a gang banger or a drug dealer,” he
When an artist comes in hot with a single name—you know she means business. And no, I’m not talking “McLovin’,” I mean a normal name—or normal-ish. Alysha is no exception to the one-name icon rule, and just like the emoji in her Instagram bio—she is a star that’s about to be shining bright AF. We
