Cash L3wis

Winston Kenneth Nathanial Johnson aka CASH L3WIS was born on July 1, 1991 in Los Angeles CA. Growing up was hard for CASH L3WIS, because he faced many hardships that normal teens don’t face now days. He lost his father at a very young age which forced him to be the man of the house as a child. This unfortunate incident only made CASH stronger, because it gave him the dedication to succeed. He was tired of everything in his life going towards the negative side so he turned to music to express his emotions. He began writing music at a very young age, and it went from a hobby, to a passion, to something he loves & will never let diminish. CASH L3WIS was formerly known as H2O which stands for “Hard 2 Obtain”, and later was changed to “Cash Lewis” due to possible copyright infringement. Unfortunately due to more copyright issues the name was changed once again from Cash Lewis to CASH L3WIS where the “E” was changed to a “3” and copy-written. Therefore, the name CASH L3WIS was born. Lewis was an acronym for Lord Extends Winston In Sound, but now with the 3 in place of the E it would look something like this. Lord 3xtends Winston In Sound. One of his very close friends came up with the name because he said that “you are incredibly talented with your vocals and have the ability to change lives. Music is your gift. Your God given gift.” The name CASH was chosen with the though of currency being a symbol of success. CASH L3WIS is a giving person and strives to make everyone around him grow. This is why he will do everything in his power to succeed. “I want to see my family and close friends living comfortably” he says. “I want to help the people who have no one else”. After his father passed away they moved from Los Angeles to Rocklin, CA. When they moved there CASH L3WIS was going to school, taking care of his mom, and handling his music business on the side. He was exposed to many drugs, gangs, and violence, but stayed away from all of it. Some kids resort to drugs and violence when things go wrong in their life, but CASH L3WIS turned to music. He was an independent rapper doing everything from production, to writing, to engineering and rapping on his own album. After a while, he joined a group called the Looney Boyz. However, they split up and went separate ways. Sometimes artists sing about whatever people want to hear and what brings in the money. However, CASH L3WIS is different. He sings off raw emotion and real events that encourage him to make music about it, & still seems to create music people want to hear. He writes all of his own lyrics based on the events that go on in life in general. He has a wide range of songs that go from finding love, to losing it. From feeling alive, to the harsh reality of death. Get Be Heard on iTunes today! www.CASHL3WIS.com www.twitter.com/CASHL3WIS
