I first heard of Theophilus London through my best friend a few years back when she played Theophilus' song "Always Love You", and since that very moment I have been hooked. He has a musical talent that is all his own and a style that nobody can ever say is there's, but Theophilus London himself. This month Theophilus is apart of Glamour Magazines Man Candy: 6 of the Hottest Guys of 2012.
SN: Go listen to Century Girl in the first verse my name is in there but I am sure it has nothing to do with me but I love it anyways <3!

Theophilus London: the Hippest Rapper
Twenty-three-year-old Theophilus London's style inspiration? His dad. "He had all the great leather jackets and cool suits," he says.
So, is he your type? If you don't know him already from his hit single "I Stand Alone," just listen to the first track off London's album Timez Are Weird These Days and you won't be able to get his name out of your head: "Last name London, first name Theophilus," the 23-year-old raps. This Trinidad-born artist was raised in Brooklyn and is known for his varied musical influences—old-school rap, classic rock, soul—as well as his quirky style, a mix of high fashion and hip-hop. As for dating, London has a few definite first-date Don'ts: "Don't bring up death or any ex-boyfriends." Other than that, he's keeping his love life close to the vest: "I don't want to give away too many of my secrets," he quips. (courtesy of Glamour.com)
