TITUSVILLE, FLORIDA - Independent artist NFL Rekko is blowing up the rap scene in Florida, and his brilliance is expanding across the nation. Every song he drops racks up thousands of views on streaming platforms and brings this rising star closer to exploding into the industry.
When asked what sets him apart from other rappers, NFL Rekko replied, “Everybody got their own story. You got to listen to hear mine. Everybody got their own sound; that is what made me different. I got my own sound.”
Known for his ad-libs and freestyling lyrics, NFL Rekko does not hold back in his songs or life. Rising like a phoenix from a challenging childhood coupled with living on the streets, NFL Rekko knows pain. As a multifaceted artist, he brings truth and honesty to trap and gangster music - and it begins with his name. NFL is an acronym for Never Forget Loyalty.
At 16, he was hustling on the streets and chasing money. Feeling lost after this brother was sent to prison, he began freestyling with some friends and discovered his passion. “When they put the beat on one time, I just went crazy. I was snapping. Everybody told me that rapping was my lane,” said NFL Rekko.
In 2018, he dropped “Let It Go” on Soundcloud, and it quickly collected 1K views. The world got a taste of NFL Rekko, and it wanted more. But it would have to wait.
After spending time in jail for a concealed firearms charge, NFL Rekko’s world changed upon release. His brother was killed. “I didn’t think shit was real. I lost connection for life,” he said. “By 2019, I came out of my shell and wanted to come back to life. I was rapping, and everything I did came from pain from what I’ve seen and been through. I knew I’d either be rapping or living on the streets. It was death or jail. I didn’t understand it until it was happening in front of me,” he explained.
That is the man behind the mic, the soul of NFL Rekko. He allows fans to understand his story through music while taking them on a musical journey that is so addictive no one can stop listening.
The single “Don’t Talk to Me” is an example of NFL Rekko’s mastery and displays his musicality. With two versions of the track, an explicit and radio version, NFL Rekko said, “‘Don’t Talk to Me’ is a song made for people who doubted me and didn’t believe in me. I promise to my fans and family I will not let y’all down. I just need y’all to pay attention to the music, and y’all going to fall in love with this unique original style.”
Fans love NFL Rekko and this track. The music video has more than 1.7K views in just a few days. Set in a popular retail store in his hometown of Titusville and filmed by Shot By Oz, the music video features NFL Rekko flexing cash and rapping directly to fans. Using versatile bars and a delivery that pulls listeners in, the video is pure NFL Rekko - authentic, honest, and entertaining.
With new singles being released weekly, NFL Rekko is a fan favorite ruling the scene. As he says, “NFL Rekko stands for Never Forget Loyalty because loyalty is priceless, no matter the sacrifices.”

AL99 (pronounced “Al nine-nine”) is an artist, producer and multi-instrumentalist on a mission to do more than just make music for people to listen to. He wants people to get inspired and motivated by it. He wants to be an example for young people and show them that being authentic leads to success. His latest track, “Addictive Visions" features Aisha Hall of Yapp City Music/Ghostface of Wu Tang, and demonstrates his desire for new experiences by achieving his goals through not only his music but all of his entrepreneurial endeavors.
Written in 2025, “Addictive Visions” is a laidback rap track with an entrancing melody where AL99 and Aisha Hall bring different flows but both discuss what they want and what they’re trying to achieve. AL’s flow is more relaxed but still confident as he slides from his verse to the hook. Meanwhile, Aisha Hall brings her confidence to the forefront with her verse which packs a punch but keeps the relaxed atmosphere of the track intact.
“I’m trying to see things I’ve never seen before. I’m trying to go places I’ve never been before. And I want to do that through the music path I’m on.” he said.
AL99 wants to lead by example through the authenticity in his music. And with that authenticity, comes diversity in the booth and in the boardroom. He’s earned degrees in Audio Production and Music Business and releases music through his company, TPC (To Progress the Culture) Music Production, whom he has a distribution deal with via Universal Music Group/Bungalo. He wants people to see that he’s an example of how to navigate the music world on your own terms by making the business decisions that are best for your music and everyone else on your team.
The diversity continues on the music side too with AL99 being a fan of music of all kinds and wanting young people to be inspired to live their truth and be themselves. As a multi-instrumentalist he plays the guitar, drums, and keyboard, giving himself a wide-ranging musical ear. This comes in handy not only when he produces his music but when he mixes and sometimes masters it too.
AL sees himself as a voice for those who may not have one because he himself was once the child that was interested in things that were not as popular with his peers. With age came the confidence to fully embrace these interests and now he’s built a career on musical diversity.
“I’m trying to bring something new to the industry. I feel like today people are more open to that in the rap world because people are starting to stray away from what we’ve been seeing for years. They’re embracing the new creative ways people are doing things and I’m a part of that.” he said.
With AL99 pursuing multiple paths that branch out from his music, motivation to keep moving forward is key. Motivation comes from his love of music and his love for sharing his journey in real time while people witness it with him. He feels as he grows in life his audience is growing along with him and they’re navigating life together. And the through line for this is his aforementioned authenticity and accountability.
AL99 has big plans for the future which include expanding his TPC brand and making movies since he already takes a cinematically intentional approach to his music. In addition to more music, he’s also got something special and unique planned to truly illustrate his story but listeners will have to stay tuned to see more about that.
“Addictive Visions” by AL99 featuring Aisha Hall is available on streaming services now.
