Biography

Born in California, raised in Michigan, happytree's music holds no location. With a deep respect for the fundamentals of the art form, this talented young rapper continues to refine his style by focusing on lyricism, unique flows and the never-ending hustle that is essential to achieving greatness. A descendant of a rich musical lineage, happytree’s own mother was a Detroit rapper during her late teens. Even after retiring from the craft, her influence helped lay the foundations for her son to follow, with happytree recalling being enchanted by an endless supply of hip-hop instrumental CDs on which his mom would rap along to. After gaining the respect of his peers and generating a buzz at the local level, he was ready to take things to the next level. Reflecting on that period, happytree stresses the importance of Outkast, and more specifically Andre 3000, on his musical development, describing him as “the goat” and modeling his own style on this game-changing icon. Two years on, happytree is now ready for a shift in sonic direction. New single ‘Don’t Fight It’, co-produced by happytree and Jack Laboz, takes an exciting step forward into the world of house-rap, a daring genre crossover that happytree seems well equipped to tackle. A house jam that aims to beam positive energy into the world and help people dance away all of their negative thoughts and energy, the track is about staying true to yourself without fighting yourself.
