Relaye

Juggling mainstream and underground aesthetics through eclectic instrumentation and fastidious flows, Relaye has honed is talents to deliver a genre-bending brand of Rap.
Born Isaac Lucas is Lawrence, KS - raised in Lacey, WA – Relaye’s musical upbringing primarily consisted of Reggae and Ragtime, sparking a curiosity in composing, beat making, and freestyling on the school bus. His knack for writing raps influenced a move to Los Angeles, where he pursued a degree in music business at USC and spent his free time shredding unworthy talent on the basketball court (he allegedly shut out NBA scoring champion James Harden in a pick-up game). It wasn’t until after graduation that Relaye decided to pursue music professionally, signing his first record with independent imprint Blue Elan Records.
Fast forward five years and it’s likely you’ve heard Relaye’s music, whether you know it or not. His work has been featured in hundreds of films and TV shows, with his single, “Long Time Coming,” being placed in the critically acclaimed video game MLB: The Show 2021. Relaye’s latest LP, Green Shoots, is a masterclass in stylistic versatility and artistic precision, exploring themes both profane and profound about love, confidence, and not taking life too seriously.
