Originally from Dallas, Texas, Drake Rodriguez is professionally known as Icon South. He is a DJ/Music Producer/Singer Songwriter that lives in Los Angeles. Icon South is known for his diverse range of production that includes EDM, Hip Hop, Pop and anything in between. While he is a emerging talent, Icon South is known for producing Trippie Redd’s ballad ‘I Tried Loving’ from Trippie’s project- A Love Letter to You 3.
Recently, Icon South has been producing, writing, singing, recording & mixing his own music and showcasing his ability to do it all. His writing style caught the attention of mental health awareness clothing brand Guilty Minds Clothing. They both decided to collaborate and bring further attention to the growing challenges of Mental Health in our culture. In light of so much negativity and stigma associated with Mental Health, Icon South has decided to be a part of bringing these issues into a different light so people can get the help and support that they need.
“I have always loved music and fashion but now I can actually feel like I am making an impact in my small way. This gives me a reason to continue to pursue excellence in my music. If I can help one person that is struggling with mental health issues, I will have considered my efforts a success. We all have the ability to influence or impact someones life for the better.” – Icon South
