Music has always been a passion of Lucas and is the catalyst of his successful career in the music industry at the helm of his independently owned Slip-N-Slide Records. South Florida native Lucas has been responsible for selling over 16 million albums. However, he credits his greatest achievements to his involvement with charitable organizations focusing on children and his community.“Music builds character and confidence for our young people, expands their outlook and helps them to navigate a path to success in life. I am proud to provide support and celebrate the work of these individuals and their organizations who are leading the efforts to fill in the gap of music instruments in schools, where music has been removed, states Lucas.
