Sly Slim-Our resident Rock Expert
Sly Slim is an American rock artist originating from Birmingham, Alabama with a musical style that encompasses complex lyrics while combining Hip-Hop elements, over driven guitars and taboo subject matters. Sly starting performing Hip-Hop music in 1997 under the stage name “X” and later branched into the Alternative Rock scene. Growing up during the 90’s grunge era, he was heavily influenced by Nirvana, Stone Temple Pilots and Pearl Jam. The ever evolving Hip-Hop movement was also a staple in his musical journey dating back to his childhood roots. These unique mixtures of musical influence have allowed Sly to master his eclectic sound. In 2016, his first single Lala Land was released, introducing the new term “Mood Rock”. Building upon this formula the EP Short Story Long was released in 2018. In 2019, Sly Slim is set to release his first Independently released album…Idiom.
