Tyler Gifted

Tyler Gifted is a Massachusetts-born music artist who blends hip-hop and melodic rap, channeling themes of pain, betrayal, heartbreak, struggle, everyday life, and self-motivation. Raised by a Puerto Rican father and a Caucasian mother, he spent much of his time with his father while his mother provided an example of relentless dedication—instilling in him the drive that fuels his music today.

His musical journey began with freestyling, leading him to establish a home studio where he immersed himself in learning mixing, mastering, and beat production. He extended his skills to engineering for local artists, but eventually felt that this was holding him back from developing his own music. Throughout this period, Tyler released singles intermittently and, in 2018, unveiled his first EP, Piece of My Mind

. In 2023, he made a pivotal decision to focus solely on his artistry, realizing that engineering consumed too much of his time and hindered his personal musical growth.

Striving for his dream for over a decade, Tyler nearly gave up in 2023 before experiencing a breakthrough. Thanks to TikTok, his song "I'm a Man" gained traction, hitting 300k streams across all platforms, which reignited his passion. Now, with 42K monthly listeners on Spotify and over 60K followers on TikTok, he continues to evolve, releasing music that reflects his journey and helps him discover more about himself with every song.
