Rassan Hicks (born March 25th, 1991) better known by his stage name San Alexander (aka San San) is an american hip-hop recording artist, rapper, and poet. Born in Tacoma, Washington he moved to Florida with his family as a pre-teen where he lived until recently relocating to North Carolina. His musical career started while he was attending college at Florida A&M University. There he became affiliated with Black on Black Rhyme, a well-known poetry organization in the Southeast, with whom he developed his lyrical skills and truly became integrated in the hip-hop community of North Florida. He mainly began performing and recording as one half of the duo known as LxngStxryShxrt with his brother iSpiteth3r before moving on to focus on developing as a solo artist.
San’s sound is a combination of complex lyricism and soulful melodies over west coast and southern style hip-hop instrumentation. His catalog consists of 2 solo albums (Conversations With Contemplation, Attitude Adjustment: Ascension), one group project (LxngStxryShxrt- To Be Continued) and numerous stand alone songs available on most streaming platforms. His music is stylistically reminiscent of artist such as Kendrick Lamar, Big Krit, J Cole, and Outkast while still remaining unique and introspectively authentic. As he continues to develop as a recording artist San has also taken an interest in developing his skills as an actor, screen-writer, producer, and entrepreneur with the establishment of Soul Hype, LLC alongside longtime partner Versailles The Everything.
