User:Xgum

xgum (born 07 October 1997), is an American rap artist, singer, producer, early crypto personality, and independent music publisher. xgum has released music through the DistroKid record label since January 2022 from their debut work with their college band Ruth in March 2019 through to his most recent release, xi xi, in late January 2024. In addition to his music, xgum has a trademark vrchat avatar, which has appeared as cover art for their releases. The character is based on Marie, a character by Mexican graphic artist GatoDelFuturo, or Gaturo.

Musical style
xgum has described their lyrics as "highly interpretable" and their industrial, percussive, and occasionally cartoon-featured sound as influenced by "Whitehouse, Death Grips, musicians of the Slayworld collective, and Richey Edwards-era Manic Street Preachers". He often incorporates samples from old video games, such as Vigilante 8: Second Offense and Rayman 2.
