Detroit’s own Heartless Kid is quickly becoming one of the names to watch in the rap scene. At just 26, he’s turning real-life pain into music that hits deep but still knocks with that raw Detroit energy. After losing his father at a young age, music became his outlet, starting out with nothing more than a MacBook and a Scarlett mic bundle his grandmother gifted him.
That same hunger has now led him to his brand-new 4-song EP Lucky Me. The project shows both his grit and his vulnerability, with the standout single “First Time” already causing waves. Even before its official drop, the track racked up over 4 million views on TikTok, proving that Heartless Kid isn’t just another rapper, he’s a voice that connects with the culture in a real way.
With Lucky Me, Heartless Kid is showing the world that his story is bigger than struggle, it’s about growth, truth, and making sure his voice is heard.
