Lil Ugly Mane
Travis Miller (born May 13, 1984), best known professionally as Lil Ugly Mane, is an American musician, rapper, singer, and record producer. Noted for his diverse style, introspective lyrics, and various side projects, Miller's work spans a wide range of genres, including experimental hip hop, black metal, lo-fi music, indie rock, and free jazz. He has also produced under the alias Shawn Kemp, and has recorded under the names Bedwetter, Vudmurk and several others.
Miller began his performing career in the 2000s in the noise and punk circles of Richmond, Virginia, though his published work includes pieces from as early as 1999. He first gained wider recognition in the early 2010s through his work with Florida hip hop collective Raider Klan and his debut album Mista Thug Isolation in 2012. Mista Thug Isolation drew influence from East Coast hip hop, Memphis rap, horrorcore, and chopped and screwed music, and has since been hailed as a pivotal work in the underground hip hop scene.
Following a brief retirement beginning in 2013, he released his second album Oblivion Access in 2015. From 2016 to 2018, Miller was a member of the underground rap supergroup Secret Circle with rappers Wiki and Antwon. In 2017, he released the album Volume 1: Flick Your Tongue Against Your Teeth and Describe the Present as Bedwetter. Miller released the third Lil Ugly Mane album, Volcanic Bird Enemy and the Voiced Concern, in 2021.
