Meet Wokkeen: Pittsburgh’s Rising Glitchtrap Innovator

Image
Brady Brozell , better known by his artist name Wokkeen , is quickly carving out a lane of his own in the music world. Hailing from Pittsburgh, PA, he’s been developing a fresh, experimental sound he calls glitchtrap—a bold fusion of trap’s heavy beats with the erratic, futuristic energy of hyperpop. The result is something entirely new, unpredictable, and built to grab attention. Early Beginnings Music has been a lifelong obsession for Wokkeen . As a kid, he dabbled in a variety of instruments but found himself losing interest just as his peers were getting started. His true spark came at 14 when his mother bought him FL Studio, igniting a passion for digital production and recording. By his freshman year of high school, he was dropping tracks that quickly circulated among his classmates, earning him the reputation of being one of the few students serious about music at the time. Finding His Sound By junior year, Wokkeen made a bold move: transitioning to cyber school, years before t...

From the heart of Birmingham, Alabama, emerges 1KSpin , a powerful new voice in the world of alternative hip-hop. His story is one of raw talent, passion, and growth—an artist who stumbled into music almost by accident, only to realize it was his true calling. The Beginning of a Journey 1KSpin’s introduction to music wasn’t a calculated move. Back in April 2021, while freestyling at a friend’s house, he was encouraged to step into the studio.

Inspired by Life, Not Just Music Unlike many emerging artists who name industry legends as their inspiration, 1KSpin’s source of motivation is deeply personal.

BurnMyTroublesAway: Turning Pain Into Passion Through Music

Music has always been more than sound for BurnMyTroublesAway — it’s a way of life. Born Carlos Wooden in Baton Rouge and raised between Gonzales, Louisiana, and Houston, Texas, his artistry is less about genre and more about storytelling. While some label his sound as “emo,” Carlos describes it best himself: “ I just make music on how I feel. Telling my story type shii cuz ion even think my sound or style is entirely emo in itself .” A Lifelong Passion For many artists, the dream begins in their teenage years. For Carlos , the spark was there since childhood. He recalls wandering through the house as a little kid, freestyling to himself, only to hear his mother in the background telling him to quiet down. That youthful energy eventually led to his first recorded song back in 2016 —a time when he was experimenting with lyrical styles inspired by artists like J. Cole. What started as playful rhymes has since evolved into a raw, emotion-driven outlet. Performances & Presence Thoug...
