LTtheMonk

Originally from London, UK, and now living in Hamilton and Toronto, Canada, LTtheMonk first fell in love with hip-hop at just eight years old, when the music captivated his young ears and ignited what would become a lifelong passion. Blended with constant exposure to reggae (via his Jamaican mother) and rock (via his Irish father), LT’s adventurous love of music and performing onstage would only grow stronger.
That eclectic musical upbringing, coupled with discovering the music of Michael Jackson and becoming obsessed with the pop icon’s music and dancing in parallel with his foundational hip hop exposure, set LT off on a journey to becoming a musician himself. It’s also an intrinsic part of LT’s toolkit, with bantamweight Gene Kelly-meets-James Brown footwork and immaculate sport socks both indelible signatures of his persona as an entertainer.
You can see all of these influences in LT's latest musical releases, in songs such as 'Class Of '23' and 'The Lo', which are currently available on all streaming platforms. And you can learn more about LT's life as a musician and dancer by following him on TikTok, Instagram and Twitter, @ltthemonk.
