ABOUT/bio

LEX the Lexicon Artist is a rapper-songwriter who blends hip-hop, pop, punk, and a distinctly nerdy eccentricity. Whether in recorded music or live shows, LEX’s humor, candidness, authenticity, and over-the-top stage presence have captured the hearts of fans around the world. LEX grew up in Taipei, Taiwan, and is currently based in NYC.

LEX has toured extensively throughout the US (shows in 34 states!), first with Adult Swim alum and nerdcore veteran mc chris in 2018 and 2019, and then with fellow NYC-based nerdcore rapper Schaffer the Darklord in 2022. LEX performed as an official musical guest at various nerd-centric festivals and conventions, including Music and Gaming Festival (MAGFest) in National Harbor, MD (2019, 2026); FanimeCon in San Jose (2019), CA; SXSW Music Festival in Austin, TX (2019, 2024, and 2025); Anime Expo in Los Angeles, CA (2019); CyphaCon in Lake Charles, LA (2025); and ColossalCon East in Poconos, PA (2022). LEX has also performed at major colleges and universities, including UC Davis, San Francisco State University, and Stanford University. All that said, LEX’s personal favorite show ever happened in Montréal, Québec, Canada.

LEX has released two full length albums, “Alter Ego” (2020) and “Raging Ego” (2018), as well as a variety of singles and EPs. Their work has been featured on the actual play RPG podcast "Campaign: Skyjacks" (One Shot Podcast Network), and the Firefox documentary series "Firefox Presents".

In 2025, LEX received full funding of the Kickstarter campaign for their third full-length album, “Toxpsychology”. The album released on May 20, 2025, followed by a live album recording at The Bowery Electric on September 27, 2025, also funded by Kickstarters.
