TARLI

Tarli, formerly known as EL.i.BE, is a Liberian-American hip-hop artist, writer, and talent curator whose music blends the raw storytelling of hip-hop, the atmospheric depth of alternative R&B, and the cinematic energy of electronic soul. His middle name, "Tarli," comes from his mother's tribe, meaning "successful journey"—a theme deeply woven into his artistry. As a first-generation Black American, he channels the complexities of identity, love, loss, and ambition into his sound, crafting immersive, bass-driven records that make you feel, think, and move.
