From the heart of Los Angeles’ Crenshaw District comes LA WRAY — a rising artist whose voice, style, and story embody everything authentic about West Coast culture. A poet, performer, and community advocate, she’s quickly becoming one of the city’s most respected new names, balancing her artistry with purpose and passion.
Before the world knew her as LA WRAY, she was a young girl growing up in Los Angeles with a deep love for expression. As a kid, she danced on a local dance team and spent time writing poetry — storing her verses in a red box hidden under her bed. Those early poems were her first connection to rhythm and storytelling, unknowingly shaping the artist she’d later become.
Her transition from poetry to music came naturally. In 2018, LA WRAY dropped a freestyle over YG’s “Big Bank” on SoundCloud, just for fun — but the response was undeniable. What started as a freestyle quickly became the foundation of a serious music journey.
Since then, LA WRAY has built her name brick by brick, with consistency, charisma, and a voice that’s impossible to ignore. She’s been featured on major platforms such as On The Radar Radio, 92.3 HomeGrown Radio with Chuck Dizzle, and Judge Sole London, solidifying her presence in Los Angeles’ vibrant hip-hop scene. Her single “This Ya Song” earned spins on Sirius XM through the radio show Effective Immediately hosted by Gina Views and DJ Hed, further proving her reach extends beyond local boundaries.
Her latest project, “4 Different Wrays,” released last year, captures that essence perfectly. The four-track collection showcases her versatility and depth, offering a glimpse into the many sides of her artistry — from bold and assertive to introspective and soulful. With no features, it’s 100% LA WRAY — pure, unfiltered, and powerful. The project stands as both a statement of independence and a celebration of creative freedom, showing that she doesn’t need co-signs or industry gimmicks to make her presence felt.
On stage, she’s just as powerful. LA WRAY sold out her first headlining show at the SOL Venue in Carson, California — a major milestone for any independent artist. Her performances are filled with the same spirit that fuels her music: confident, raw, and undeniably West Coast.
Every detail of LA WRAY’s artistry represents Los Angeles. Her sound is soaked in West Coast energy — from her flow and beat selection to her fashion and confidence. She embodies LA’s culture through her visuals, attitude, and storytelling, proudly carrying her city on her shoulders. Her authenticity is what makes her stand out in a crowded scene — she doesn’t chase trends; she sets her own lane.
Beyond the music, LA WRAY is deeply rooted in giving back. She’s the Co-Founder of “All Hands In,”a non-profit organization focused on mental health awareness.
In a city overflowing with talent, LA WRAY shines as one of its most promising voices — a hidden gem whose music and message are equally powerful. From poetry under her bed to sold-out shows, she’s built a career grounded in authenticity, resilience, and love for her city. Her story is proof that staying true to yourself can still win in an industry full of imitation.
