colin!

Born in Ohio but proudly representing Alabama, colin! is a young rapper/producer on the rise, just as comfortable spitting over a samba rhythm as he is over 808 drums. He debuted with his EP THE VISION, featuring the breakout single “TOOYUNG,” where he showcased a yelpy yet impassioned delivery along with the skill to rap over beats most up-and-comers wouldn’t know what to do with. That same year, colin! followed up with BIGGER VISIONS, an electric tag-team tape with fellow ‘Bama spitter and childhood friend BIG LUKE. On his latest tape, BY ANY MEANS, released on March 28, 2025, he flexes his production chops, lacing his beats with live jazz performances inspired by Miles Davis, Donald Byrd, and Herbie Hancock. At less than 20 years old, colin! has what it takes—and he’s willing to do it BY ANY MEANS. written by Matt DiDomenico
