Lucki Camel Jr., known mononymously as Lucki, is an American rapper, singer, and songwriter born on May 30, 1996, in Chicago, Illinois. He is recognized for his distinct sound that blends cloud rap, trap, and emo rap, along with introspective lyrics that often explore themes of mental health, substance abuse, and relationships.
Early Life and Musical Beginnings
Lucki grew up on the west side of Chicago and was influenced by both the local drill scene and alternative hip-hop from a young age. He listened to Erykah Badu, Prince, and The Notorious B.I.G. growing up.
His early musical influences included Kanye West, Future, and Chief Keef, but he developed his own unique style that was more introspective and moodier compared to the high-energy drill music Chicago is known for.
He started rapping in his teenage years and adopted the stage name “Lucki Eck$” when he released his debut project.
As some of his current inspirations, he cites Chief Keef, Future, Kanye West and Babyface Ray.
Career Breakthrough: “Alternative Trap” (2013)
Lucki gained attention in 2013 at the age of 17 with his debut mixtape, “Alternative Trap.” The project was critically acclaimed for its dreamy, lo-fi production and Lucki’s laid-back delivery. Tracks like “Count on Me” and “4th Commandment” showed his willingness to explore darker themes, setting him apart from other emerging artists in Chicago at the time.
Lucki’s music style was often characterized as “cloud rap” due to its ethereal production, and he quickly built a dedicated fanbase in the underground hip-hop scene.
In December 2014, Lucki collaborated with fellow Chicago musician Chance the Rapper and released a song titled “Stevie Wonder”.

Evolution of Style and Projects
Over the years, Lucki evolved his sound, experimenting with various forms of rap while maintaining his introspective and melancholic lyrical style. Following his debut, he dropped several projects, each showing his personal growth and struggles:
- “Body High” (2014): This mixtape delved further into themes of substance abuse, heartbreak, and paranoia. The project’s spaced-out beats were produced by some of the underground scene’s most notable producers at the time.
- “X” (2015): Lucki released this EP under the name Lucki Eck$, continuing his exploration of self-medication and the struggles of fame.
- “Freewave” series (2015-2019): This series of projects, including “Freewave 2” (2016) and “Freewave 3” (2019), featured his signature hypnotic flows and confessional lyrics. These releases solidified his place in the underground scene.
- “Watch My Back” (2017): This mixtape is considered one of his most introspective works. It captured Lucki’s ongoing battles with depression and addiction while showcasing his ability to create infectious hooks over cloudy, spaced-out beats.
Struggles and Recovery
Lucki has been candid about his battles with addiction and mental health issues throughout his career, frequently addressing these topics in his music. He’s described his relationship with drugs as both a coping mechanism and a destructive force, something that has affected his personal life and career. After a brief hiatus, he returned to music stronger, reflecting on his experiences with addiction and recovery.
Recent Success and Mainstream Recognition
In recent years, Lucki has started gaining more mainstream recognition, though he remains deeply rooted in the underground. His sound has evolved to be more polished, while still maintaining the emotional depth and authenticity that has always set him apart.
- “Almost There” (2020): This EP showed Lucki maturing both in life and in music, as he reflected on his growth and struggles with sobriety.
- “Wake Up Lucki” (2021): A collaboration project with producer F1lthy (from the Working on Dying collective), this release showcased a more experimental side of Lucki, with fast-paced beats and trippy, distorted sounds.
- “Flawless Like Me” (2022): This album saw Lucki’s continued ascent in the rap world. With features from prominent artists like Lil Yachty, this release brought him more attention from mainstream audiences.
Personal Life and Influence
Lucki remains a relatively private figure, despite his increasing fame. His music speaks for him, often providing a window into his personal struggles, victories, and thoughts. His sound has influenced a generation of younger artists in the emo rap and trap scenes.
Legacy and Influence
Lucki’s impact on the underground rap scene is undeniable. His ability to craft emotionally resonant, dark, and melodic tracks has inspired many younger artists in the rap world, especially those exploring themes of addiction and mental health. He’s been praised for his honesty and vulnerability, traits that resonate deeply with his fanbase.
Lucki’s style continues to evolve as he navigates his career, maintaining his authenticity and connection to his audience while reaching new heights in his artistry.
