Kodiak Rapper Releases Debut LP

I knew I had an interest in music very early on in my life. I liked writing as a child, and that paired with my fascination with drumming led to rap music. I liked the way I could flow to rhythms and something about rapping just seemed to come naturally to me. At age ten I was writing my own songs.

By middle school I was composing my own beats, using my drum set and beat making machines on my computer. Once in high school, I started to find outlets for my music to make a name for myself. I utilized YouTube, as well as Facebook and Twitter to create a following.

I like to write about my experience fishing and other things that Alaskans can relate to. As of March 1, 2013, I have finally released my debut LP “Paper and Crayons” featuring production by myself as well as my friend El-Jay. Next year I plan to move to Southern California where I will attend college and continue making music. Although I will no longer be living in Alaska, I will continue to fish in the summers and make music inspired by my unique upbringing in Kodiak.

Eli Fields is a young Alaskan rapper whose music in inspired by his unique upbringing in Kodiak. He has recently released his debut LP "Paper and Crayons," writing about his experiences fishing and other things Alaskans can relate to.
