1neofmani (One of Many) is an unorthodox rap artist whose music and #LessWorkLifestyle movement is set out to control the narratives of how local rap artists are viewed and acknowledged in the music business. Starting with his own career. Out of the many things 1ne does, it all aligns with his music. Whether it's LessWork Literature (blogs), LessWork Lens (photography), or LessWork Lyrix (music) they're all necessities of which local artists need to remain relevant and for their views to reign as influential. A local artist himself, 1ne saw this as an avenue to create in Madison and titled his solution-based company--LessWork Local Lifestyle-- along with his business partner, Akiya (A-Key-a) "K.I.L.O aka SkitL'z." Music is the perfect engagement for those who are aware plus new to 1neofmani's "Local Is The New Global" message. As 1neofmani would put it: Easy Wins. #WittUS Out Now...

Delivering energy, passion, and concept which are often referred to the "soundtrack of his life," 1ne's stage presence and confident approach balances out anything (if at all) that he lack all-around. Growing up in the mid-west his topics in his music range from success, poverty, material wishes, women, financial stability, racial disparities, drugs, and identity challenges. Picture Dr. Dre producing an entire album for 2pac, Nas, Nipsey Hussle, Kendrick Lamar, Snoop, and J. Cole. 1neofmani is the equivalent of all those inspirations while sharing his own unique vision. That's were his Mid-west roots come in.

1neofmani has studied music business at Globe University to enlighten himself on what it takes to sustain a healthy and persistent lifestyle in this music business. He supports local artist so much he started a clothing line exclusively for local artist called LessWork Lifestyle. He's content with staying independent and showing those who are inspired by his style of music how to create revenue streams while staying loyal to their musical craft. When 1neofmani isn't writing music he's finding ways to give back to communities whether it's assisting with youth programs, hiring volunteers to give them customer service experience, or just letting the community see his face in local parks to show that he'll never forget where it all started.
"My only fear is failing, failing to spark that one brain that will spark another brain to change the world just like 2pac sparked mines." - @1neofmani
