WHO IS UNCLE MYLES?
Uncle Myles is a St. Louis native that has resided on every coast and is now musically grounded in Seattle. Since a young age, Myles always had an older soul; cultivated by his parents. while kids were listening to the newest rap and pop songs, Myles indulged in Johnnie Taylor and Marvin Gaye to Sugarhill Gang and Eric B. & Rakim; earning him the prefix “Uncle” by his peers.
Writing raps since the age of 12, he’s been through multiple styles of the Hip-Hop genre. Grabbing inspiration from Rakim, UGK, and Snoop Dogg (just a few to name), Uncle Myles uses the music he is influenced by; intertwined with his life experiences to create his own version that can be classified as “lifestyle rap”. As you listen to one of his tracks, you jump into his world as he cruises down the highway, goes to the car wash, or eating fine Asian cuisine; feeling as if you are next to him.
