About the Artist
Stephen "Night Train" Wilkes: I'm an artist and designer who pretty much likes to rap. I'm the kind of person that takes everything I do seriously, but still can jam with the best of em'. Born and raised in MD (DMV). I love all forms of music but tend to gravitate towards hip-hop more than most others. I love jazz, r&b, rock, classical, and big band to name a few. I love lyrically charged music and just have fun, shut up and listen. A lot of people wonder where I got the name "Night Train" from. It was my father's CB (Citizens Band) radio name. I took on the name after he passed away. Formally, I was with Left Lane Committee. We all decided to go solo. So.. here's my solo shot. Still doing music, together, with anyone who wants to jam. Old LLC members as well. Just go with the flow.
