Ethan Codylee Graham, is quickly rising in the alternative rap scene, rising from Los Angeles. He burst onto the musical scene in March of 2022 with his debut track “Talking Money.” Since then, he has gained a considerable following, with 45,000 monthly listeners on Spotify.

His musical style is diverse, containing genres such as Hip Hop, Rap, R&B and Soul. Drawing comparisons to artists like Playboi Carti, Travis Scott, Drake and Lil Wayne . Ezcodylee’s inspiration for creating music stemmed from his middle school days when he witnessed a student freestyling. He found further inspiration in cartoons, drawing parallels between the creativity involved in animation and music production.

Despite his young age of 21, Ezcodylee has already captured the attention of prominent Youtube channels dedicated to music. Interviews with him have highlighted his storytelling and his ability to blend different musical genres.  Feedback from listener Danner Angeles, a student at Rio says, “ He has an ability to give good storytelling and his diverse range of musical styles.”

Ezcodylee just released a new album called “luv music volume 2.” Currently, the album has over 15,000 streams and has only been out for 1 month. As he continues to make music and continues to catch more attention, he might just be the next star in the music industry.
