Las Vegas native Suedewave is a rapper, songwriter, and music producer whose sound draws from a lineage of genre-blending Soul, Hip-Hop, Jazz, and Funk defined by artists such as Tyler, the Creator, Pharrell Williams, and Kendrick Lamar. As both a producer and vocalist, he builds his records from the ground up, combining melodic rap with soulful hooks and textured arrangements.
Known for incorporating live instrumentation into his productions, Suedewave collaborates with musicians from around the world to merge organic performance with modern hip-hop sound design. His main collaborators include Reno-based artists Uncle Tommy Ray and Bones, who assist with songwriting and production.
Blending introspective lyricism with groove-driven production, Suedewave’s music lives at the intersection of alternative hip-hop, neo-soul, and contemporary rap.
