About
5th Lettah
Step into the world of 5th Lettah, a Bronx-born Taurus who channels the essence of hip-hop culture. From the bustling block parties at Sedgwick and Cedar to the beats of Biggie Smalls and Mary J. Blige echoing through his childhood home, 5th's musical journey began in 10th-grade geometry class. There, he traded textbooks for rhymes, inspired by the life story of DMX in "E.A.R.L." Failing the class became his inaugural sacrifice for hip-hop, instilling in him the ability to count bars and paving the way for a musical odyssey that spans over 17 years. Influenced by legends like Jay-Z, Nas, and Eminem, 5th's music is a fusion of versatile styles, abstract lyricism, and poignant narratives about love and life. As a genuine open book in his art, he stands out with brutal honesty, dark humor, and a unique blend of cartoon/anime footnotes. From his debut album "rEign" to recent singles like "Flyin Nimbus" and "$E," produced by industry heavyweights, his sound resonates across 50 countries and continues to captivate a growing global audience. Born to young parents and driven by a mission to defy expectations, 5th's personal journey reflects resilience. Raised in a Puerto Rican household amidst the challenges of the Bronx, his music becomes a canvas vividly painted with unique perspectives. The long-awaited full-length project, "Downpour" is on the horizon, promising a continuation of boundary-breaking music that connects with audiences worldwide.
