GET TO KNOW: "Hxvik" (pronounced "havok") is a 20 year old artist reppin' Lynwood, California. The #Cancer began making music around 10/11 years old, most recently releasing his Sept. 2023 single "Get Yo Bandz Up". Hxvik took his first stab on the #UNDRGRNDMagazine Stage on August 24th, 2023 at our Tru Carr x TeeFLIii show at Los Globos in #LosAngeles.

Upon seconds of meeting Hxvik, you realize he's got enough energy for both of y'all. His high-spirit and good vibes carry to his music, exemplified in his "Do My Dance" music video, filmed by Gavin Banksy. Hxvik says his biggest music influences to date come way of #MichaelJackson, #XXXtentation, #JuiceWRLD, #SSGKobe, and #Eminem.

Away from music, Hxvik doubles as a chef at #Benihana in the LA area. He tells UNDRGRND Magazine his favorite movie is "Dragon Ball Z: Fusion Reborn" (1995), and his biggest pet peeves are "laziness" and those with "lack of compromise & consistency."
