简介
Larry "L-Day" Davis IV, otherwise known as Lawrence Davis, is an American songwriter from Vallejo, California. Born on February 29th, 1992, Lawrence has been between the bay area and Hawai'i since the age of eight and grew up influenced by a wide variety of family, culture and music. Lawrence began producing beats at the age of twelve as a tool of expression and later decided that beat production was not enough for him to fully express himself. At the age of thirteen, Lawrence turned to songwriting in an attempt to express himself even further and found motivation in perfecting his own craft. At the age of fourteen he randomly created and shouted out his own nickname, L-Day, after he won his first and only tennis match during gym class at Benicia High School. Graduating in the class of 2010, most of his peers knew him by L-Day through his music and high school classmate collaborations. All throughout his teenage years L-Day has primarily wrote to his own beats along with a team he helped put together called "Recon" which consists of four close friends that share similar dreams. As time has progressed Larry Davis IV has been more focused on songwriting coming out with smoked out music and sticking to delivering a euphoric vibe. Through attending music classes at Diablo Valley College and becoming an ASCAP songwriter, L-Day continues to seek for the proper knowledge needed to push forth in the music industry through collaborating with others and social media networking via Datpiff, Thizzler, Soundcloud, Instagram and other websites to help build his fan base.
