About SAHXL
Artist Biography
Learning piano as a child in Western Sydney, SAHXL (pronounced “Sa-hil”) began releasing his smooth hybrid of hip-hop and R&B while still in his early teens. Earning cosigns from The Kid LAROI and Apple Music 1 host Ebro Darden, he displayed his romantic finesse on 2020’s “The Kid Freestyle” and a harder edge on 2021’s “C4”—as in blowin’ up like the latter—before making open overtures of desire and satisfaction on the 2024 ballad “MISS INDEPENDENT,” featuring Chikoruss. Working with Australian and American producers alike, SAHXL glided confidently across 2024’s NEVERMIND, whether seething with romantic frustration on “BETTER THAN LATER” or sharing some of his most delicate emotional truths on “NEGLIGENT.” The latter has proven to be especially insightful about his emerging potential, yielding both a supple remix featuring added vocals from Texas R&B artist Kaash Paige and an unplugged version that circles neatly back around to his early days at the piano.
