Using his love for drums as the soul of all his musical compositions, Eli6 is creating a lane in hip hop only he can make happen.
Born in Spoleto, Umbria, Italy, a young Alessandro Elisei would be inspired by the hip hop genre through albums “The Marshal Mathers LP” by Eminem and “Hot Dog Flavoured Water” by Limp Bizkit. His musical taste would evolve, rapping over Trap, R’n’B, Hip Hop, Funk, and Metal beats under the moniker Eli6, stemming from his last name and the number 6 in Italian. Over the course of his musical journey, he has spent time in the UK and Tuscany, IT, before moving back to Umbria.
Eli6 has since become synonymous with the sounds of his heavy-hitting drums alongside his melancholic synth melodies. This combination has created his unique brand of music that capitalizes off his passion and love for drums. Eli6 isn’t solely an artist, but an all-round musical creative. With studies in production from Berklee College of Music where he notably tops scores in his first year, he is also an affluent sound engineer, lyricist, and producer that curates his own beats and music. All these add to his extensive resume of accomplishments which include having his first production, “Celebrate” land on the top 100 Hip Hop Italy chart and producing for various artists.
While expanding his fanbase, Eli6 has also been hard at work on his album for the past year and 6 months. Finally, the masterpiece known as “LA-LOW” has been released for the world to enjoy. The 10-track album is Eli6’s biggest project to date and features influences from the futuristic sounds of Mike Dean, Travis Scott, and Drake. “LA-LOW” embraces the message of freedom from Eli6’s past hardships and struggles to attain his dreams now manifested. With the leading single “The Team” alongside his brother Dr.ive, the album is already proving it’s worth.
