Born and raised in Southeast Washington, D.C., rapper Uncle Toe developed a passion for songwriting at the age of eleven, going by the rap name Lil Psyko. He later changed his name to Pyro, then Toe Boogie, before landing at Uncle Toe, the name that his two nephews call him. Uncle Toe wrote songs off and on for years before deciding in 2013 to turn his hobby into art. After releasing two mixtapes in an eight month span, Uncle Toe made the choice to turn his art into a career. That choice led to the release of his 2018 mixtape, ‘You Owe Me Nothing’. Uncle Toe’s music can be best described as conscious rap. Over the years, he’s had numerous musical influences such as Eminem, Cassidy, JAY-Z, Lil Wayne, Pusha T, and J. Cole. He draws inspiration from his own experiences and surroundings to pen lyrics to beats inspired by a wide ranging of sounds from boom bap to trap, west coast to soul and the DC based genre of Go-Go. Uncle Toe looks to motivate his fans to become the best, most unstoppable version of themselves through his music.
