Evan Johnson aka “Young Ex” is an up and coming artist originally from Cincinnati, OH now residing in Atlanta, GA. Young Ex is a college student at The Art Institute of Atlanta studying in the field of Audio Engineering. At 20 yrs old Young Ex has developed the skills of song-writing, producing, recording and mixing. With the pop hit single entitled “Party Girls” Young Ex has what it takes to become an impact to the music industry and climb the billboard. He is a humble young man coming from a family of 5, two brothers and 3 sisters. Two years ago he lost one of his sisters Marie Mauldin in a tragedy car accident to a drunk driver. She’s one of the big inspirations to his music and the reason why he continues to follow his dream towards being a musician. “Most people get discouraged and give up what they were doing once someone close to them passes away. But to me, it’s more of an inspiration to do it. So I’m going to do it” he states. Young Ex has been writing since he was 9, and began recording himself since he was 14. “Once I learned how to put together my own studio it was on!” he remarks. Young Ex developed a sound that no one in the city could clone and began working with many of the local artist recording, mixing, producing and writing for them. Young Ex was one of the few artists out of Cincinnati mentioned in the national magazine “OZone”. Months ago, Young Ex was heard by a major producer name Hi-Tek, and was offered a recording engineering position as well as songwriter. Instead, Young Ex chose to go to school and work towards his degree in audio engineering. Young Ex hopes to work with many major artist, producers, and musicians in the music industry. Currently he is submitting material and focusing on pushing his anticipated single “Party Girls”. With this song he hopes to captivate audiences and take the music industry by storm.
