Dark and intense rapper Scarlxrd started his quest for fame as a much goofier internet personality. He spent his early years posting humorous and lighthearted videos online, but turned toward powerful, distorted vocals and demonic instrumentals when he began rapping in 2015. His prolific output and shocking image would skyrocket singles like "Heart Attack," and "Chain$aw" into platinum status. He released multiple new projects every year, working with Island Records for some albums, but opting for independent release for albums like 2021's DeadRising.

Scarlxrd was born Marius Listhrop in Wolverhampton, England in 1994. Prior to his music career, he acquired some fame in his late teenage years as a YouTube vlogger who went under the alias Mazzi Maz. After several years of his more and more popular YouTube presence, however, he deleted his videos and shifted gears toward a new image, working briefly with the band Myth City before starting the Scarlxrd project in 2015. Also known as Yung Scar, Listhrop developed a sound that moved from dark trap atmospheres on early singles like 2016's "Girlfriend" to more explosive, metal-edged tracks like 2017's "The Purge" and "Heart Attack." A string of mixtapes surfaced along with frequent singles, including 2016's "Rxse" and 2017's "Chaxsthexry," "Cabin Fever," and "Lxrdszn." The next year, Scarlxrd returned with the moody, screaming singles "A Braindead Civilisatixn" and "We Waste Time Faded" from his debut studio full-length Dxxm, which was released via Island Records. A sophomore effort, Infinity, followed in March 2019. Before the year was up, he announced new album Immxrtalizatixn was planned for an early October. His third studio album and eighth full-length collection of music was preceded by several singles including "Ask," "Up.Up.Up.," and "Backwards." He continued working with Island on releases like 2019's Acquired Taste Vxl 1 and 2020's Fantasy Vxid, and during this time his songs were used on HBO series Euphoria, as well as for theme music for a World Wrestling Entertainment event. Scarlxrd cut ties with Island for 2021 releases Dxxm II and DeadRising. 2021 also found him featuring on the Trippie Redd song "Dead Desert" and issuing collaborative EP Lxrdmage with Florida rap/metal hybrid artist Ghostemane. ~ Fred Thomas, Rovi
