Why do you make art?
It's only natural. I feel this natural, persisting desire within myself to create because it helps me to better understand the world around me. It allows me to properly digest and express the abstract concepts that I cannot describe through simple speech. Past that, it is my therapy, and my best friend.
About
Huey Slims
Huey Slims is a 20 year old rapper, producer, and engineer from Cleveland, Ohio. He currently attends Ohio University as a senior majoring in Music Production. Influenced by the likes of Earl Sweatshirt, J Dilla, Capital Steez, and Kendrick Lamar, Huey’s signature style is marked by methodical and heartfelt raps over slow, intimate, and abstract production. Regular themes in Huey’s music include the exploration of trauma, love, and healing. Falling in love with Hip-Hop at age 13, Huey would go on to write many poems which over time developed to full length songs. After his sudden homeschooling as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, Huey went on hiatus from rapping to focus all his efforts on learning production, granting him complete artistic freedom. Now, Huey emerges from the shadows to shock the world.
