Elias Michael is carving out his own lane in pop-rap—glitter-spun, hook-heavy, and defiantly fun. In a genre often weighed down by ego, he leans into humor, self-awareness, and the strange spark of everyday life. His songs sound like nostalgia set to a dance beat, pulling from the late-90s and 2000s eras he grew up in: bright melodies, bold lyrics, and a wink tucked into every bar.
Rooted in his identity as a queer artist of color, Elias writes with a sense of freedom and self-ownership, but never lets the message overshadow the party. His music is a reminder that joy counts as storytelling too—that it’s okay to be ridiculous, to be real, and to scream-sing a chorus at full volume. He’s here to make people move, laugh, and feel a little more alive, one glitter-rap anthem at a time.
