What started as a hobby at the age of sixteen, has now blossomed into a rising music career. Xav The Ripper is a writer, recording artist, and producer from New Jersey. As a kid, his love for music began at the age of ten when he started playing the trumpet. When he turned 16, he decided to take his music seriously and began recording vocals off of iPhone headphones inside his car just to make it happen. And due to his lack of resources, he would spend most of his days and nights learning how to mix, master, and produce to try and make his dream become reality. Now at the age of 21, Xav is at the beginning of a promising music career, drawing inspiration from Mac Miller, Flatbush Zombies, Kid Cudi, and many more. He has spent years mastering a sound a style unique to him, and now, he has honed in on his abilities and is ready to make his mark on the world.
