“Entering Alwa Gordon's cozy rental, well-equipped with a flat-screen TV and nicely appointed kitchen, you might not guess it's home to an underground rapper. But the 24-year-old is just that, and he appears on the verge of bigger things. Gordon just recorded three tracks in Las Vegas during a studio session at Future Music. The label is owned by well-established hip-hop artist Jason Boyd, also known as MDMA, whose credentials include writing singles for Usher and Chris Brown. The collaboration could throw the Santa Cruz native in the real mix, Gordon said. "I'm not trying to be something that I'm not," Gordon said of his flirtation with music-business success. "As long as you're the best you can be, I think people are going to respect you." So how can a Santa Cruz kid with no street credentials make it in the rap industry? Gordon said his flow stems from two life-changing episodes. ”

— Santa Cruz Sentinel

“Things are falling into place for Alwa Gordon. The Aptos-based rapper just returned from Las Vegas with three professionally produced hip hop tracks by Grammy-nominated production team the Audibles. Not only did he not pay a cent for them, he was flown out by the record label Future Music to make the recordings and sent home with the tracks free and clear. “They gave me clearance on all the tracks, which are worth well over $30,000. It’s ridiculous to even think about,” Gordon says. The owners of Future Music are well-established names behind the scenes in the hip hop world. Jason Boyd, also known as MDMA, has written such singles as “Caught Up” and “Superstar” for Usher and “She Ain’t You” and “I Can Transform Ya” for Chris Brown. The Audibles, which serves as Future Music’s production team, has produced such hit singles as “Girl I Got You” by Young Money and “Turn It Up” by Mishon. ”

— Aaron Carnes, Santa Cruz Weekly

“He writes his own lyrics, runs an independent label called Can't Stop Us, self produces all of his music videos, in addition to some of his music, and maintains a steady stream of gigs throughout California, all in conjunction with maintaining a full-time job.”
