If you ask $!x (pronounced “seis”) where he’s from, you’ll get an answer that’s as unconventional as his music: “Not sure, but I know where I started—Fayetteville, NC.” That sense of ambiguity and openness runs through everything he does, from his approach to music to the way he thinks about life itself.
So what got $!x into music? “Sound,” he says, flatly. For him, it’s not about genre or image or even the usual origin story. It’s about the raw power of sound—how it can move, disrupt, and rebalance. “My perspective on sound is what makes me different,” he explains. “That’s really what sets me apart.”
Ask him to pick a favorite lyric, and he’ll just tell you to stream the music. “I have multiple. Stream my music for this answer,” he says. It’s not a dodge—it’s an invitation to dive into a catalog that’s as eclectic as it is honest, where every song is another layer of his perspective.
Right now, $!x is focused on promoting “balance from a universal perspective.” It’s a theme that comes up again and again in his work, and it’s clear he’s not in this for the quick hit or the viral moment. There’s an album ready to go, but he’s not rushing the drop. “When do y’all want me to drop it off?” he jokes. “Well, actually, I have an album ready but the drop depends on the streams, so stream my singles.”

$!x doesn’t fit into any box, and that’s exactly the point. He’s not interested in following trends—he’s here to create his own lane, one sound at a time. Keep your ears open.
