Welsh multi-talent Yxngxr1, active as producer, rapper and singer, first attracted widespread notice in 2019 through his intimate bedroom productions, beginning with the debut single “Tyler,” which alternated between sung and rapped passages. Raised in the area surrounding Cardiff, he took cues from XXXtentacion, Lil Pump and Ski Mask the Slump God while shaping a distinctly British variant of lo-fi, D.I.Y. trap and hip-hop. Working with basic tools, he pieced together loops and beats before posting his earliest recording online to favorable reactions that same year. A rapid series of further tracks appeared, each issued independently, as guitars entered his palette and everyday subjects supplied the lyrical focus. His opening mixtape, Childhood Dreams, surfaced in 2019. At the start of 2020 he issued the follow-up project I Don't Suit Hats.
