About BoyWithAfro
Story
Raised in the Twin Cities, BoyWithAfro spent his adolescence in Portland before moving to Los Angeles for college, where he has remained since.
He began beat making in late 2018 and soon expanded into writing, recording, vocal production, mixing, mastering, sound design, and visual direction, developing a fully self-contained creative process that shapes each release from conception to execution.
Balancing both creative and technical disciplines, his multi-role workflow is central to his identity. This site reflects that philosophy: the music matters, but so do the credits, the process, and the connective metadata surrounding each piece of work.

Long bio
BoyWithAfro is a Los Angeles-based independent American artist whose work brings together rapping, production, songwriting, recording, mixing, and mastering under one name. Raised in the Twin Cities, shaped by his adolescence in Portland, and now based in Los Angeles, he approaches each release with a strong sense of authorship and a hands-on commitment to every stage of the process.
After beginning with beat making in late 2018, BoyWithAfro expanded naturally into writing, recording, vocal production, sound design, and visual direction, building a self-contained creative practice that carries ideas from conception through finish. That multi-role approach is central to his identity as an artist: each song is not just performed, but constructed, refined, and finished through his own creative and technical lens.
