QAEL is a multifaceted artist who stands out as a beatmaker, rapper, songwriter, and DJ. His musical career began in the world of writing, where he discovered a natural inclination for freestyle, fueled by his passion for turntables. After years of apprenticeship, between sound systems and collaborations with the PSALM collective, he released his first demo, "Un modo di azione." After moving to Bologna, he had the opportunity to share the stage with prominent artists such as Reks, Inoki, Apollo Brown, Skyzoo, Big Pooh, Okvsho, Moddi, Soulboy, Next one, Coez, DJ Shocca, DJ Trix, DJ Lugi, and many others.
In 2017, QAEL released the EP "Essenzialmente Soul," produced by Natty Dub (Funk shui project), which marked an important milestone in his musical journey. Subsequently, he explored the world of beatmaking, releasing his first beat tape, "Dream Tape," in 2021, and the album "The Sample Cave" in 2023, both on the Bologna-based label "Beat's Tailors."
His most recent work, the EP "Istinto," was released in May 2024, confirming his ongoing artistic evolution and ability to innovate in the music scene.
To date, he has collaborated with rapper and songwriter Amir Issaa, producing all the tracks for the entire "New Balance" EP.
