Hazeldene residents can boast of an upcoming musician in their midst.<\/p>\n

Young hip-hop, R&B and dance musician Antonio Suto (21), or 3rd Letta, as he is known, has his sights set on making it big in the music world.<\/p>

<\/div>\n

Antonio matriculated from Dinwiddie High School in 2011 and will be studying sound engineering at the Academy of Sound Engineering, next year.<\/p>\n

\u201cI have always liked music,” he said.<\/p>

<\/div>\n

\u201cI started off in primary school as a beatboxer and then branched into writing poetry.<\/p>\n

\u201cFrom there I started rapping and I have grown since then.\u201d<\/p>\n

Antonio writes all his own material, creates his instrumentals and does the mixing.<\/p>\n

\u201cI feel that doing everything brings out the music the way I want it to be,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Currently Antonio is represented by Sebastian Taimo and endorsed by Allegrezza Clothing.<\/p>\n

He has a number of television appearances lined up for the next six months, as well as a video shoot, and is working on an album, due for release at the beginning of next year.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am also doing a remix version of my song \u2018Oh Dear\u2019, with top artist Reason, which is very exciting,\u201d Antonio said.<\/p>\n

His parents, Maria and Antonio support him, although his dad wanted him to go into international relations.<\/p>\n

His four brothers, Remigio (35), Amandio (31), Claudio (29) and Abrantes (27), also support him.<\/p>\n

When Antonio is not working on his music he enjoys spending time with his girlfriend, Vanessa Adonis, playing basketball and drawing.<\/p>\n

\u201cNow that I am growing into myself as an artist I am making music that excites me and puts me in a good mood,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cFrom the feedback I have received it seems that it puts other people in a good mood, too.\u201d<\/p>\n

So watch out music world \u2013 Antonio hopes to take you by storm in the not so distant future.<\/p>\n
