Artist Profile: Hipster Mills
Texas based artist Hipster Mills has been rhyming words since a kid, but rapping wasn't always in the plan. Wanting to become a history teacher at first Hipster Mills didn't officially hop into a booth until right before he graduated high school. Thats when he became close to Alternate Choice (the second half of HMAC) and the two started to create music. Hipster Mills started making merch in high school as well, with his best friend Ryan and then as soon as HMAC started. Him and Alternate Choice begun designing and making HMAC merch out of Alternate Choice’s garage. With a very spontaneous creative formula Hipster Mills makes his music based on the emotions he feels at the time. This could range from an aggressive angry style, to a more sad emotional approach.
Drawing inspiration from people such as Tyler The Creator & Lil Yachty’s rap career’s, this gave Hipster Mills the boost he needed to start rapping and to take it serious. But most importantly Hipster Mills takes inspiration from the world around him and the people in his daily life. Having stand out tracks such as Pull up, Dicksmall, HMACBAG, 4 Chrimus, Sandwich, and his personal favorite Talion, HMAC has gained a close scope on their career and a cult like following already. On July 17th 2018 in the city of Dallas Texas, HMAC had their very first show with The Showcase Tour.
Unfortunately they did not get the win in the competition, but this sparked the beginning of Hipster Mills love for performing. With an amazing stage performance Hipster Mills feeds off the crowds energy and emotions. Ranging from climbing on ceilings, walls, and even breaking through tables, everything is planned and calculated before the show even starts. Going from writing on his bedroom floor at 4am, to being greeted by a crowd of people is the exact reason why Hipster Mills goes so hard for the loyal HMAC fans that give him the platform to feel free.
