Bake Lo

CHARLES BAKER (BORN ON MARCH 1ST, 1994), BETTER KNOWN BY HIS STAGE NAME BAKE LO, HAS BEEN QUOTED TO BE ONE OF THE HARDEST WORKING ARTISTS AROUND. NOT ONLY BECAUSE OF THE IMMENSE ENERGY THAT HE BRINGS TO THE STAGE & MICROPHONE, BUT ALSO BECAUSE OF WHAT HE DOES BEHIND THE SCENES. HE HAS A WILLINGNESS TO WORK THAT LEAVE SOME INTIMIDATED. THIS ARTIST COMES HARDCORE WITH AN INTRICATE BUT CLEAR WAY OF RHYMING WITH HIS VERY OWN, UNIQUE STYLE OF MUSIC. GROWING UP IN THE SMALL BUT MIGHTY CITY OF ECORSE, MICHIGAN WASN'T ALWAYS EASY. OTHER THAN BEING LOCATED ON THE OUTSKIRTS OF DETROIT, THE CITY WAS RIDDLED WITH PROBLEMS.
GROWING UP IN A LOW INCOME HOUSEHOLD TAUGHT BAKE THE STRUGGLES OF ADULTHOOD EARLY ON IN HIS LIFE. BETWEEN HAVING TO START WORKING AT A YOUNG AGE TO HELP HIS FAMILY'S INCOME AND LIVING IN A HOUSEHOLD THAT WAS ON THE VERGE OF FALLING APART; HE LEARNED. HE LEARNED THAT LIFE WAS GOING TO BE A ROLLER COASTER THAT HE MIGHT NOT BE ABLE TO HOLD ON TO. REGARDLESS HE DID NOT LET IT STOP HIM. HE WAS SOON INTRODUCED TO THE IDEA OF MAKING MUSIC BY A CHILDHOOD FRIEND, WHO ORIGINALLY GOT BAKE LO INTO RECORDING HIS FIRST FEW SONGS. AT FIRST THE SONGS WERE NONSENSE BECAUSE BAKE COULDN'T QUITE FIND HIS SOUND. IT WASN'T UNTIL HE WAS INCARCERATED AT 15 & SENT TO A JUVENILLE FACILITY TO REALLY REFLECT ON HIS LIFE WHEN HE FINALLY CHANNELED HIS INNER EMOTION INTO HIS WRITING,


AT THAT POINT HE BEGAN TO FEEL A RELEASE WHEN WRITING ABOUT HIS LIFE AND THE STRUGGLES AROUND HIM. IT WAS SOON THAT HE BEGN TO MASTER HIS UNIQUE SOUND OF WICKED TRUTH. HE WAS EVENTUALLY INTRODUCED TO AN ARTIST BY THE NAME OF IKKURRUZ THAT REALLY HELPED BAKE LO GET THE INITIAL PUSH THAT HE NEEDED. HE OFFICIALLY BOOKED BAKE LO FOR HIS FIRST SHOW IN 2011 & BAKE MADE SURE THAT HE SOLD EVERY SINGLE TICKET THAT HE WAS GIVEN, PLUS MORE WHICH LEAD TO BIGGER OPPORTUNITIES. ONE OPPORTUNITY IN WHICH HE MET HIS SOON TO BE (NATIVE WORLD INC) LABEL PARTNER, ANYBODY KILLA(ABK). LEAVING BEHIND HIS JOB AT A LIQOUR STORE, BAKE LO DID HIS FIRST NATIONAL TOUR AT THE AGE OF 17 WITH AYBODY KILLA(ABK) & BLAZE YA DEAD HOMIE AS; DRIVE BY. HE LATER WENT ON TO DO COUNTLESS TOURS AND SHOWS THROUGHOUT THE SPAN OF A COUPLE YEARS WITH ARTISTS SUCH AS; JELLY ROLL, SHAGGY 2 DOPE, PROZAK, MADCHILD, TWIZTID, THE ROC, BLAZE YA DEAD HOMIE, ABK, BOONDOX, SCUM, LIQUID ASSASSIN, HOUSE OF KRAZEES, DJ CLAY, ZUG IZLAND, AXE MURDER BOYZ(AMB), BIG HOODOO, G-MO SKEE, BIZARRE OF D12, WHITNEY PEYTON, LEX THE HEX MASTER, KING GORDY, & MANY MORE!
IT IS NO SURPRISE THAT THIS YOUNG & DEDICATED HEAVY HITTER ATTACKED THE GAME HARD. THE RESULTS OF HIS DEDICATION LEAD HIM TO BECOME SKILLED IN NOT ONLY WRITING AND PERFORMING, BUT ALSO IN; GRAPHIC DESIGN, TOUR MANAGING/BOOKING, DMX LIGHTING SETUP & CONTROL, BEAT PRODUCTION, SOUND RECORDING, AND SO MUCH MORE INCREASING HIS WORTH IN THE BUSINESS DRAMATICALLY.
