Aaron prefers to have his personal life private and out of the media.

His first two singles, “Ride” and “Let Go,” were excellent introductions to his career, as he eagerly attempted to make a name for himself. He released his first official single “Ride” in November 2018 at age sixteen while still in high school, two months later, he released his debut album Chase which consisted of eleven songs.

He delivers sophisticated lyricism paired with hypnotizing flows and catchy hooks that are reminiscent of J. Cole. Aaron states, “…We all grow up taking some inspiration from somebody, or influence from somebody. My biggest influences were Nas and J. Cole but by the time I’m 20? I’ll have my own sound figured out.” Over the last several years he has grown into his own style and created a sound that is truly his own. 

Aarons’s music is described as having ¨sharp lyricism and versatile flows.¨ Wiki also states that “His voice is smokey yet rich with melody.” He is frequently compared to J.Cole, a popular rapper with a similar voice and beats. 

In an interview with Complex, Aaron says that he writes about things he has actually gone through, rather than putting up a front for attention. “There’s nothing better than the truth …If you come out saying what you are from the start and that’s what you are, there’s no way your career can ever fail.” Aaron also states, “I’ve put all of myself into my music all while going through personal struggles. I’ve stayed humble, patient, and focused which I’ll continue to do¨

Today, Aaron continues writing music, releasing freestyles, and being active on social media. His latest release was in late December 2021 with a two-track bundle called “WOKEUPTHINKINBOUT/HIDDENVOICES.” He does not have any upcoming shows or tours.
