I’m Lord Dawson—raw, real, and relentless. I turn life’s struggle into sound. One listen and you’ll feel why I’m next. #TopHitmaker

Who or what is your musical inspiration?
Creatively and aesthetically I’m inspired by Lil Wayne—his wordplay, freedom, and fearlessness. But the struggle inspires my content. Every syllable I write is like a wish blown on a dandelion, hoping it lands somewhere and changes something.
How would performing at the Global Citizen Festival impact your career?
Performing at the Global Citizen Festival would be a major turning point in my career. It’s more than a stage—it’s a global platform that aligns music with purpose. It would amplify my voice, connect me with millions, and show the world that my art stands for something bigger. It’s not just about performance; it’s about impact, legacy, and using my gift to inspire real change.
What would you do with $50,000?
If I had $50,000, the first thing I’d do is secure my living situation—make sure I have stability, peace, and a space to create freely. After that, I’d invest in my craft, build a stronger platform, and make moves that turn my passion into long-term success.
