LOST

HERE I AM

GRIFDORF is a genre-melting artist from Davidson, North Carolina, blending hip-hop, alt-pop, and what he calls “Space Funk” - a sound rooted in honesty, heavy emotion, and weird grooves. Raised on rap, pop, and rock records he’d obsessively dissect in his bedroom, he taught himself to write, produce, and record music from scratch.

“SIGHTINGS FROM MY SPACESHIP” (2021) was his first sonic offering. Sticking with a DIY approach and homegrown methods of creating music in your bedroom, Grif and his best friend, Tyler Smith [wxpu] crafted an EP channeling the pandemic’s imposed loneliness.

2021-2024, next was to craft a single trilogy, each having a central purpose. “HOODIE” - shows he can rap his ass off. “DOPE” - shows he’s one hell of a storyteller. “DREAM” - shows his honesty and uplifting, positive nature. But after these, the main mission was the mixtape.

His debut album//mixtape, “GRIFTAPE” (2025) is a sonic patchwork of synth-pop sheen and sample-heavy hip-hop grit - equal parts Tyler, The Creator and Mac Miller with a dose of 2000s indie energy. His lyrics explore purpose, mental health, love, heartbreak, and self-discovery, all wrapped in sharp wit and grounded optimism.

GRIFDORF is a full-spectrum creative: singer, producer, filmmaker, designer, actor, head of PAJAMA PUNKS, and co-founder of two genre-bending music duos - THE GO-TOOS and VENDING MACHINE. Always, the root remains: tell the truth, have fun doing it, and inspire others to be exactly who they are.
