I sound like the weather unpredictable but there’s a part of me that everyone loves or will enjoy.
People should be excited to see me perform because I offer a unique experience of music and crowd interaction something you can tell your grandkids about because they’ll ask what it was like when you’re old and wrinkled.

My name is Walt From.The.Future and I’m in the “in-between” space of Hip-Hop, with a sound that could be considered mainstream but deviates into the realm of experimental and alternative. People have compared my sound to artists like: Lil Uzi Vert, Travis Scott and Don Toliver. Those who have seen me perform always give witness to one thing: I bring an undeniable energy and presence to the stage that makes the room shake and creates an experience that’s hard to forget.
