New York, LA and Atlanta are the country’s traditional rap hubs, but believe it or not, some of the most exciting rap music being made right now comes from America’s 31st largest city, Milwaukee. 📸 Aloy Xiong // 🔗
But that still means being true to his own instincts. Online, fans will tell AyooLii, “‘Hey bro, use this EQ, mix this.’ I’m like, ‘Man, I don’t wanna do none of that.’”
As to what happens next in Milwaukee, AyooLii says, “I don’t wanna be the biggest, the most richest—I just wanna be a part of it. We got a lot of kids in Milwaukee inspired by what we do. They’re shooting videos on phones. They’re making songs off BandLab and blowing up. It’s crazy!”comes from the “lowends,” the part of East Milwaukee where the street numbers are the low ones on the city’s grid system.
In his thirties, Steve is a decade or more older than many of his Milwaukee contemporaries. One of his scene peers, Carvie P, is actually one of his childhood friend’s sons. His music is less lowend, more straight street rap. In one charmingly hyperlocal lyric, he raps, “I’m from the Mil’, please don’t get it twisted / I was raised by those n***** who caught Jeffrey Dahmer slipping.” But just like the city’s teens and twentysomethings, Steve found success dancing on TikTok.
