xtaye is an artist whose music traverses the realms of soundcloud rap, hyperpop, rage, and punk trap. Born in Toronto, Ontario, and raised in Halifax Nova Scotia, xtaye's unique blend of genes reflects his diverse upbringing and the inspiration he draws from his surroundings. The spark that ignited xtaye's music journey was lit at a Rolling Loud event in Toronto. Having been limited in concert experiences during his time in Halifax, the energy and vibrancy of the concert scene resonated deeply with him. Four months later, attending a yeat show, he decided to take the plunge and explore music creation for himself. This decision marked the beginning of a path that would lead him to discover his own voice. Reflecting on his journey, xtaye candidly shares his regrets, particularly in not initially following his musical aspirations. The fear of judgment held him back from pursuing his passion. He acknowledges the influence of his sister's musical interests, but it wasn't until later that he embraced the idea of creating his own sonic expressions. Today, he stands as an embodiment of breaking free from external expectations and. unapologetically pursuing his dreams.
