A few years back, Lazer was landing on top of just about every major Am contest podium, but last summer he took home the win at the first-ever Rockstar Energy Open. With a little bonus cash from the win, he gifted himself a Hemi for his 19th birthday. Hear him talk about his love for clothes (after he pops the trunk on his mobile wardrobe), in between clips and a little rundown of what’s next in the life of Lazer.
