Lead-
Marcus Morton (born April 20, 2004), better known by his stage name Redveil (stylized as redveil), is an American rapper, songwriter, and record producer from Prince George's County, Maryland.He has self-released three albums, Bittersweet Cry, Niagara, and Learn 2 Swim.

Early life
Morton was born in Washington, D.C. on April 20, 2004, but has lived in Prince George's County his entire life.

Influence
Growing up, Morton's parents would often play funk and soul music, which was an early influence to his sample choice, and his tone delivery. At age 11, Morton heard "Palace/Curse" by The Internet and Tyler, The Creator, which he credits as the "kickstart" to his musical interest. Shortly after, Redveil began producing his own music with FL Studio. In 2020, Morton described his music as "triumphant, bright and sunny."

While making his 2022 album Learn 2 Swim, Morton drew inspiration from New York Drill Music, and listened to local DMV area artists Xanman, Yung Manny, and No Savage during the creation.

Production
Redveil has production credits on all of his album. His 2022 album, Learn 2 Swim, was entirely self produced because Morton wanted the challenge of making his new sounds.
