WHAT IT IS: Caraveo has come a long way since selling CDs out of his backpack at the age of 12 and opening for local rappers in Seattle. Amalgamating hip-hop, electronic and alternative sounds, the genre-defying artist has racked up over 750m global streams and amassed 200k+ Spotify followers, who’ve connected with his vulnerability and intimate storytelling. After dropping a string of singles as well as his recent collaboration, “Complicated,” with Steve Aoki, Caraveo has just released, Northend Sweetheart, his first LP since inking to Virgin Music. The up-and-comer is now gearing up to embark on his fourth U.S. headlining tour.
