Editor's note

Matt Ox, the Minneapolis rapper who broke through young

A 2017 viral hit and a string of moody tracks define his early catalog.

For a quick sense of his sound, start with 'Athlete' and 'Overwhelming.' They frame that early burst and the moodier side that followed.

He landed on the map with 'Athlete' in 2017, a track that caught fire online and pulled listeners into his blend of hip-hop, pop, and R&B. Songs like 'Overwhelming' and 'Big Enuff' kept that momentum going, even as personal and legal troubles surfaced around the same time. His music often feels like it's wrestling with that push and pull between sudden attention and everything else.

The Minneapolis rapper started with 'Athlete' in 2017, followed by the EP 'Oxygen' in 2018 with tracks like 'Overwhelmed.' Later that year, allegations against him emerged, though charges were dismissed. His catalog since includes songs such as 'Low Key' and 'Michael Myers.'
