Born and raised in New Jersey, HyenaXXL was immersed in a rich tapestry of sounds from an early age, thanks to a musical diet rich in the iconic styles of Prince, and Rick James, curated by his mother. These artists, known not just for their beats but for their deeply narrative and lyrical content, sculpted HyenaXXL’s artistic vision, driving him to explore the more profound layers of music beyond the ephemeral appeal of “Radio Music.” HyenaXXL’s sound is a complex blend of lust, love, and melancholy, painting vivid stories through alternative R&B and soul. Each track is not just a song but a narrative, a slice of life wrapped in melody, inspired by the storytelling mastery of his idols. This commitment to narrative is what sets HyenaXXL apart in a genre that thrives on both innovation and tradition. Now, HyenaXXL lives his dream, producing songs that engage the mind and touch the heart, ensuring that every story he tells is not just heard, but felt.
