Shug
Seattle, WA
Shug is an artist/songwriter/producer based in Seattle, Washington. He originally discovered his passion for music in middle school, incorporating hip-hop and R&B into class projects for teachers that allowed it.
Since then, Shug has been learning music production, pushing limits with his writing and recording everything from his home studio. His current sound can be described as melodic rap, defined by catchy melodies and deep lyricism. But his most defining attribute is his ability to articulate his authentic self.
His mixtape from last year, I Don't Need You is a journey of overcoming heartbreak and taking control of his life. Each track explores different aspects of love, loss, grief, denial, and self-assurance. His favorite track, Deep End, emphasizes self-empowerment, growth during times of loss, and gratitude towards blessings.
Progress focuses on personal growth and self-improvement, which are big themes on his upcoming album Smile, a project of his most heartfelt songs that he has cultivated over the last 3 years.
