Occasionally a new artist emerges that captivates the ears of its audiences instantly. That artist is Carl "StroVelli” Stigall. StroVelli is a rising star in the Hip Hop Industry with amazing talent & passion to match. Born and raised in Benton Harbor, MI, where he discovered his love for Hip Hop in his high school years through the music of Lil Wayne. He also followed the styles of Rap greats such as Nas, 2pac and B.I.G., who along with Lil Wayne, continue to be his greatest influences to this day.  
He began to write and rap as a hobby that grew into an all encompassing passion. This passion followed him all the way to college.  He attended The Art Institute of Pittsburg, PN where he honed his skills as an artist/producer. On his downtime from his school work he continually wrote, produced & recorded his music in his dorm room which would become the material for his first mixtape. He graduated from The Art Institute in Dec 2011 with a degree in Filmmaking/ Video Production. Shortly thereafter he released his debut mixtape, GOOD SPIRITS. 
GOOD SPIRITS was released to the public through DatPiff.com in Dec 2011 to positive reviews. He describes his style as “Universal” and the music he makes “has something to offer for anybody that appreciates quality music.” GOOD SPIRITS was a testament to his life’s triumphs and tribulations. With tracks like “Everything Around Me,” where he talks about his fears and his motivation for success, and “Fade Away,” which proves to be nothing less than pure emotional honesty, allows the listener to take a peek into the mind of StroVelli, who specifies his struggles with love & everyday life
“I poured my heart, my soul, my life into this project. This project tells the story of who I am, good and bad.” When asked to describe GOOD SPIRITS as its own entity,” It would be like a good person who sometimes has to do bad things for the greater good in order to provide for his people”
StroVelli is currently shifting his time between performances and working on his sophomore mixtape project, "StroVelli".  While "GOOD SPIRITS" was all about telling his personal story, "StroVelli" is more “something for the clubs and the streets,” all while still showcasing his strong lyrical ability.
