Jolly Wrapper, That’s “Wrapper” With A “W”! is a Portland-based musical performer, spoken word poet, and visual artist. His work often draws inspiration from his experiences, interests, people, systems, and social injustices.

Although not confined to any one particular genre of music, his most popular songs usually consist of Hip-Hop Rap and Bedroom-Pop.

He’s established in the local area both as a Portland Poet, and also as an up-and-coming artist in the Portland hip-hop rap scene as well. He’s not only performed all over Portland, some of his most notable out-of-town performances were in Houston Texas, Las Vegas, Nevada, and one of his biggest feats yet was being flown out by the Smithsonian Institution, located in Washington DC, to give a musical performance for the launch of Open Access, the releasing of the Smithsonian’s digital archives to the public.

He enjoys metal detecting, collecting coins, polishing rocks, and his favorite snack is cilantro. Through his art and self-expression, he will change the world.
