Brxyden!

Brxyden! is an 18-year-old artist from Madison, Wisconsin, His inspirations come from both his early years and what he still hears today. He says Kaden and Tdubbs were the first rappers from his hometown who really inspired him. During the pandemic he listened heavily to Duwap Kaine and Rx Papi, and even newer artists like Rex continue to push him to experiment and try different things with his sound.

In the next five years, Brxyden! sees himself building a life where he can feel comfortable wherever he goes, while also reaching bigger goals in music. He also hopes to give other artists the same kind of opportunity to perform in front of a crowd that others once gave him.

Brxyden! credits Chicago for being a welcoming place, and says it took him until the beginning of 2025 to really form a team and lock in. His connection to music started early, he made his first song at around 8 years old using his mom’s old Samsung phone and SoundCloud’s recording feature, freestyling into the phone mic with no beat. By 2021, he started using BandLab every day to experiment with beats, presets, and recording, and even now he still records with wired Apple headphones and BandLab when he is not in the studio.
