Milo, known offstage as Rory Ferreira, is an American alternative hip-hop artist heralded for his philosophical lyrics and avant-garde approach to the genre. Emerging from the underground rap scene, Milo's work is characterized by introspective themes, intellectual references, and a distinctive flow that defies conventional structures.

His career started to take off with early projects like "I Wish My Brother Rob Was Here" and "Milo Takes Baths" both released in 2011, but it was the successive releases of "things that happen at day // things that happen at night" (2013) and "a toothpaste suburb" (2014) that solidified Milo's reputation as a rapper with a unique narrative voice. The conceptual 2015 album "so the flies don't come" further elevated his status as a craftsman of words, earning critical acclaim. His progression continued with "who told you to think​?​?​!​!​?​!​?​!​?​!" and the jazz-infused collaboration "Nostrum Grocers" with Elucid, showcasing his ability to push boundaries and blend genres. The 2018 release "budding ornithologists are weary of tired analogies," once again exhibited Milo's penchant for poetic expression and thought-provoking content, cementing his position as one of the most innovative voices in modern hip-hop.
