Dwae Leontè is a LA-based rapper, singer, songwriter, producer, & international performer that delivers magnetic melodies, poetic lyricism, myriad flows & poised production while creating an undeniable smooth breath of fresh air with his extensive genre-shifting versatility. In addition to the rough & early comparisons to Polo G, Blxst, & A Boogie Wit da Hoodie, Dwae's unorthodox approach to music, alongside his “Swiss Army Knife” artistry, mixed with his West Coast & Filipino roots, creates a unique solidified sound that will develop him into stardom. Born as Dwaylon R. Calhoun, the Carson, CA native was brought up by his 1st generation Filipina mother, his father hailing from West Athens Los Angeles & his iPod which had music from various eras & genres. In his youth, Dwae was heavily influenced by artists such as Drake, J. Cole, Kendrick Lamar, & Kanye West & at 14, he began rapping, uploading songs on SoundCloud, & engineered for himself & his peers. He would later play ball at the collegiate level which led to his hoop journey in the Philippines but instead of committing to a university or going pro in his mother's homeland, he instead committed to music. In early 2022, the self-taught artist signed a non-exclusive sync licensing deal with Madden Flow Entertainment & since then, he accumulated over 291k+ streams across all music platforms while growing to over 24k+ followers, 950k+ likes & over 2Mil+ views on social media platforms like TikTok & Instagram
