Inspired by hiphop, pop, punk, and 90s EDM, AL-EL's (short for Ali Elohim) eclectic, smooth melodic hiphop sound and eye-catching visuals are distinctively him.

Growing up as a first generation Persian-American in San Jose, California, he was faced with two cultures (at home and at school) that tried to constrain him to certain identities, telling him who and how he should be. Ali knew he was one of a kind and different than what people would try to box him in as, so he paved his own path to fully express himself as an artist and as a human by not caring about what people say or think and hopes to motivate and inspire others to do the same. Ali now resides in Los Angeles and takes pride in working with artists and producers from all over the world because he believes there's talent anywhere you look and wants to build a community of talent and support throughout his music career.
