From Crawley, England, Shay Rider's unique style of rap can be described as a melodic blend between Cloud Rap and Emo Rap, a style that was influenced by his favourite rappers growing up such as Juice Wrld, Trippie Redd and Post Malone. He was influenced by the American rap scene from an early age, after spending a portion of his childhood in San Jose, California. The artist continues to gain the attention of young listeners with his movement that encourages people to be more open to talking about mental health, having suffered during the majority of his childhood with depression and anxiety.
Shay explains his motivation behind making music is the hope people can listen and relate to his honest lyrics. He aims to help his listeners understand they are not alone, something his favourite rappers did for him at a young age. He often thanks his listeners as he explains, "music is my way of venting everything that's going on inside my head".
