SKEME

Skeme is the stage name of an American rapper from Los Angeles, California. He emerged in the West Coast hip hop scene in the late 2000s and early 2010s, building a reputation through a prolific run of mixtapes and collaborations with other California artists. His music is generally characterized by a smooth, contemplative delivery over varied production, drawing from street narratives, personal reflection, and everyday experiences.

Throughout his career, Skeme has released numerous projects, including mixtapes and singles, and has been a frequent guest on tracks by peers within the West Coast rap community. He has tended to operate largely within independent channels, distributing music through digital platforms and independent labels rather than pursuing major-label stardom. The name Skeme is sometimes stylized as SKEME in credits and artwork.

Biographical information outside his music career is relatively limited in publicly available sources, which is common for artists who maintain a focus on independent releases and underground circuits. Despite this, Skeme’s work is recognized within the regional scene for its consistency and contribution to the broader landscape of contemporary California hip hop. In the years since his emergence, he has remained a notable figure among listeners who follow the evolution of West Coast rap and its independent artists.
