From the rough pavements of Chicago, Youseff began as a force of sound to be heard and never ignored.

Sharing the same hometown with legendary musical acts - Kanye West, Lupe Fiasco, Common, Twista, Snypaz, Crucial Conflict, Do or Die, and more recently Juice WRLD; Youseff became inspired at an early age, by a wave to be reckoned with.
Growing up, Youseff listened to all walks of music. His love for vocals and melodies from different genres, influenced his unique way with words and delivery. Lead vocalists Robert Plant of Led Zeppelin, Jim Morrison of The Doors, CeeLo Green of Gnarles Barkley, Freddie Mercury, Prince, and Klaus Meine of Scorpions were only a few of the many he found fascinating.
Writing rap lyrics and singing catchy melodic tunes, Youseff quickly developed into a new sound for listeners across the globe. There really aren’t many who are keeping pace with Youseff, as he tends to fly from scene to scene, pulling the audience from left to right in a seriously thrilled multi-genre ride. Youseff finds music a passionate, intimate endeavor used to express his reality; aiming to give the listener a view of the world we live in, through his eyes. Tales of highs & lows, times of triumph, loss, dreams, and nightmares we all find familiar.
