A Boogie Wit Da Hoodie — Music Videos

From Highbridge to melodic rap

A Boogie Wit Da Hoodie is the stage name of Artist Dubose, an American rapper, singer, and songwriter from the Highbridge neighborhood of the Bronx. He emerged through the New York rap scene with the 2016 project Artist, developing a style that gives sung melodies as much space as rapped verses. His recording career is closely associated with Highbridge The Label and Atlantic Records, while his name and early work retain the identity of the neighborhood where he grew up.

Projects and songs

His album sequence includes The Bigger Artist, Hoodie SZN, Artist 2.0, Me vs. Myself, and Better Off Alone. Songs such as “Drowning,” “Look Back at It,” and “Swervin” helped make his mixture of street narratives and melodic hooks recognizable. “Part of Me,” released in October 2025, continues the more reflective side of his catalog, dealing with a relationship and the emotional conflict left behind by it.

A melodic vocabulary

Dubose often moves between conversational rap, sustained notes, and tightly repeated refrains within one performance. That approach connects his music with both contemporary hip-hop and R&B. Alongside more assertive tracks, he repeatedly returns to trust, romantic disappointment, memory, and the difficulty of separating public confidence from private uncertainty.
