Despite no musical background, Adrian Stresow taught himself how to produce when he was in eighth grade. Over the span of a few years he released music strictly to SoundCloud and garnered a strong local fanbase in his hometown Dallas. In 2017, he released his At Least I Tried mixtape, which reached #31 on the iTunes Hip-Hop charts, and a few months later dropped The Kid In His Room which reached #15. Stresow’s body of work is heavily influenced by the sounds of modern rap, however his self-produced songs such as “Can’t Help It” and “Look Okay” show his versatility as an artist.
