August Alsina

Born and bred from the streets of New Orleans, Louisiana, enter into the game, 21-year-old August Alsina... With the love and hustle of the Crescent City running through his veins, August is eager to follow in the footsteps of the NOLA music legends that paved his way. His recently inked deal with Def Jam Recordings looks to be a great step in the right direction, but music wasn't always in his future. August learned at an early age that drugs and money could make you, or break you. With both his father and stepfather battling crack addiction, August's mother moved their family to Houston, Texas in search of a fresh start. But Houston provided no happy ending.

 Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!

I started out at the bottom, yes I came up from nothing
Had a lot of people who told me that I wouldn't amount to nothing
Soon as I got something started, niggas act like I owe them something
But nigga I don't owe you shit, you say I do f*ck you and who you with

I fought for everything I got and a nigga don't brag 'bout what he have
But I work hard to have a lot 'cause I can't go back to when times got bad
Them hard nights and my hard life is what keep me motivated
But I feel so misunderstood 'cause anytime shit go good

They say I'm Hollywood
'Cause a young nigga living good
I done worked my way to the top
'Cause you know the grind it don't stop
Just let me get my shine
If you sill hating then I'm sorry
That you think I'm Hollywood
'Cause a young nigga living good (living good)
You think I'm Hollywood
When you see I'm doing good
When you see I'm doing good
Nigga you see I'm doing good

'Cause I do just what I gotta do to get the food up on the table
Make sure my family eating good, took my momma out the hood thank God I'm able
It's such a blessing ain't too much stressing
It's cold out here in these streets, why a f*ck nigga wanna hate on me?

I fought for everything I got and a nigga don't brag 'bout what he have
But I work hard to have a lot 'cause I can't go back to when times got bad
Them hard nights and my hard life is what keep me motivated
But I feel so misunderstood 'cause anytime shit go good

They say I'm Hollywood
'Cause a young nigga living good
I done worked my way to the top
'Cause you know the grind it don't stop
Just let me get my shine
If you sill hating then I'm sorry
That you think I'm Hollywood
'Cause a young nigga living good (living good)
You think I'm Hollywood
When you see I'm doing good
When you see I'm doing good
Nigga you see I'm doing good

Now they telling me congratulations
But deep down they hating (often)
And it starts to come from familiar faces, they pray on my fall
I'm giving my all, taking trips to different places
Usually when people feel they make it
It seems so easy to go and get complacent
But I'm up right now, tryna make a million bucks right now
I stayed down 'til I came up, never changed up but they still gon' say 

They say I'm Hollywood
'Cause a young nigga living good
I done worked my way to the top
'Cause you know the grind it don't stop
Just let me get my shine
If you sill hating then I'm sorry
That you think I'm Hollywood
'Cause a young nigga living good
You think I'm Hollywood
When you see I'm doing good
When you see I'm doing good
Nigga you see I'm doing good
