Shooby, born and raised in Compton, California, is the most exciting hip-hop voice to emerge in the post-pandemic era. Combining elements indicative of street wisdom and authentic hip-hop pedigree, Shooby’s style is a nuanced blend of confidence and vulnerability. As an artist, Shooby’s musical DNA comes from a similar place – his music doesn’t offer sympathy and instead delivers a sense of empathy in an unfamiliar style that he’ll be remembered for well after the decade is over. Shooby is accessible to all demographics. His persona functions as a contemporary exegesis of modern life in a post-pandemic world. When listening for the first time, his music invokes a calmness combined with strength, capturing what it’s like to experience love and other life lessons. Shooby knows how to break down the dichotomies of loneliness and love, and in doing so, he’s created a musical place for himself. With a masterful ability to sing rather than announce, Shooby possesses an intuitive understanding of how powerful a voice can be. In offering teenage and young adult appeal, he adds a layer of ethnographic literacy, allowing his music to guide listeners like a bright star rather than a lighthouse. As the debut drop from Le Marché Noir, “Stuck in My Head” is Shooby’s premier release and is accompanied by a music video. By sharing personal experiences related to self-expression, Shooby’s music provides listeners with insight into a culture of class and community.
