Lil Skies at Irving Plaza

Lil Skies is one of the emerging artists in the rap scene. First releasing music on Soundcloud, there are plenty of facts you can learn about him. HeartBreak Kid, another rapper, is his brother. His father, a hip-hop musician formerly known as Dark Skies (who now goes by the name BurntMan), exposed him to rap music. Shippensburg University was the young rapper's alma mater.

He began freestyling on his own. In high school, he became a modest YouTube and SoundCloud fame. He published his music video for the tune 'Lonely' in 2015, and the overwhelming response inspired him to make more music. In 2016, he released his second music video, "Da Sauce," which became a massive smash with over a million views. The following year, Lil Skies released his debut mixtape "Good Grades, Bad Habits 2," then in 2017, he released his second mixtape titled "Alone," before beginning production on his debut album. The album's first single, "Red Roses," was released in July of the same year. The record was an instant hit, peaking at 69 on the Billboard Hot 100. He followed up with 'Nowadays,' which charted at number 55 on the Billboard Hot 100 and was certified gold.

His mixtape "Life of a Dark Rose" was published in 2018 and quickly became a commercial success. The CD had 14 tunes from well-known musicians. It garnered him a lot of praise. He released his debut studio album "Shelby," named after his mother, in 2019. In 2020, he released the lead single "Havin My Way" from his second studio album "Unbothered," and his song "Welcome to the Rodeo" was featured on the soundtrack for Madden NFL 19 (an American football sports video game).
