Taylr

Raised in the Mid-West regions of Kansas. Only 25, Taylr has been making music in this confined city for the last 6 years. Starting his journey into Rap and Hip Hop music by qualifying for Funk Volumes TeamBackPack cypher in 2014. He has been on a steady incline of development in the field of hip hop since, releasing over 60+ songs on multiple platforms like Soundcloud and YouTube from 2015 to last year in 2018. With 500,000 total views on Soundcloud from various singles and songs with local artists, he took on his first entirely solo project to date titled “Intoku”. 

While Taylr only ever wrote his songs before the development of “Intoku”, this project had a lot more to offer in terms of his artistic ability simply because he produced everything himself, with the exception of a song from a local producer. Taking the year of 2017-2018 for self-isolation and study, he finally released his first self-made album to the world on all streaming platforms. With the release of “Intoku” he had something more to offer than just rhymes, but an overall image. An Image saying, he can do it by himself. Just like you and many others can. Listening to “Intoku” you hear trace amounts of his influences on every track. A visionary, someone who plans to help boost and spark the awareness of others, and make them understand the importance of their own perspective through music. Through poetry. Through Hip Hop. Similar to that of Big L, Mos Def, Gangstarr, Nas, Tupac, and a few others. Lyricism in both today’s world of hip hop and the past, drives most of Taylrs music.  

If you’ve heard him, you’ve heard him. He encapsulates the essence of true hip hop by bringing you to his level of perspective with his intense flow of words, a cadence that strike your nerves, and a love for word play and poetry. Being the producer of his own records, his ability to condense his expression and put it into a project or song, has exponentially risen in terms of reaching the people. With an energetic yet, level headed and charismatic stage presence, Taylr represents everything that makes true Hip Hop and Rap great again. Hearing traces of what is indefinitely the sound of hip hop in the past, infused with the New Age sound of today’s never-ending development of the music industry in itself, Taylr’s music provides a whole new experience and takes things to the next level by going straight for the soul.
