VI.BE

Ryan Eiffel is an innovative urban music visionary based in Brussels, Belgium who is pioneering a new style and sound that’s been called Trap Soul and Alternative R&B. He blends singing and rapping across a multi-octave range with inventive flows and skillfully crafted lyrics that describe the human emotional existence. He deals with its beauty and its flaws portrayed through chaotic, sometimes extreme states, mixing love, hate, peace, and violence. His tracks are atmospheric, built on melodic beats with heavy bass. He performs in English with touches of French and draws inspiration from the US and Canadian hip-hop scenes, French rap, and electronic music. Eiffel’s tracks “Diamonds” and “Silhouette” put his creativity on full display and are an excellent introduction to his world for new fans. He plans to release a dozen new music videos in 2019, done with the finest directors in Belgium and is also recording an EP of new material. He makes his music with engineer/producer Lamberd Toysumger, whose unique methods of mixing and mastering give Eiffel’s songs a strong identity. “As a kid, I wanted to be an artist,” Eiffel says, continuing “I started rapping in French in high school with some friends. Started to go to studios with rappers, then went on to write, myself, and decided to pursue it until more and more people realized that my gifts couldn't go to waste.” His work has been compared to Travis Scott, The Weeknd, and Tory Lanez but Ryan isn’t defined that easily. He’s already captured a lot of online attention with his intensely personal sound and feels that he was born to write, record and perform it around the world. Ryan Eiffel is one of the most compelling new stars currently rising and represents the future of smart, funky music. Listeners looking for who’s up next need to discover him tonight.
