Los Angeles based artist Lil Drift is making major strides as a recording artist. Being heavily influenced by Tupac, Justin Bieber and 21 Savage, his high quality sound is catching the attention of many. Coming off of his performance opening up for Ohgessy & Shoreline Mafia In Los Angeles, he is riding out a musical wave. One thing that is for certain is that Lil Drift is the next big act to take over the music game.

Growing up in Colton, California Lil Drift was exposed to an array of diverse cultures and music at an early age. While in high school, he decided that he would take a stab at music putting his true passion to the test. One day he recorded himself doing a live freestyle and uploaded it to Instagram. The next morning he had over 200,000 views and Lil Drift the rapper was born.

Finding viral success on social media gave the California native the courage he needed to pursue a career as an entertainer full time. His work hard caught the attention of his high school football coach Fat Mack, who introduced him to producer Disko Boogie.

The two hit it off immediately, which led to Drift being signed to Birmingham Entertainment, an independent label based in California. With an authentic sound and raw lyrics, Lil Drift is well on his way to the top.
