22 year old, SA-born and raised Tyler Linkman has been influenced by hip-hop and rap music his entire life. Sending years perfecting his flow, he is as comfortable with hard-spitting rhythms as he is with mumble rap and works all angles of the genre to perfect his vibe, depending on where he feels the song is moving. As an independent artist for a couple of years, his star began to shine until he was snapped up by his current record deal, one which puts him firmly in the space where creation and freedom allows for unrestricted lyrical boundaries.
We got to feature the rap artist on our Hot On The Streets segment and he had a lot to share. He first tapped into his single 'Levitate' on how it came about as well as 'what is important to him as an artist'. He also graced us with a studio 'Live Performance' for his single 'Levitate'. This follows the release of his recent EP 'Garden Flavours' of which features the likes of 'Marcus Harvey', 'Priddy Ugly' and 'Mars Baby'.
