Hip-hop has expanded and evolved with new sub-genres, styles, and perspectives. However, Hype’s sonic composition is a mix of the current nuance of rap fused with the iconic 90’s sound.

Born in Cameroon, in 1998, Hype was only six years old when his family uprooted to Canada where he spent his pre-adolescent years.

Influences from Lil Wayne's, Tha Carter IV is what led Hype to dabble more into hip-hop. Hearing Kendrick Lamar's, Good Kid, M.A.D.D City in 2012 is when it really clicked. Hype's soulful sound varies depending on what pocket he’s in.
