Who is Drexthejoint
Drexthejoint was born and raised in Santa Ana, according to Hip-Hop Vibe. EARMILK described him as an emerging 19-year-old in January 2025 coverage of "The One Who Did," a 15-track project it said draws on his experiences in Orange County.
Hip-Hop Vibe reported that the project came out Jan. 10, 2025, with features from Heembeezy, Mike Sherm and Rowdy Racks, and that his song "Bounce Out" had passed 7 million streams by March 2025. The same outlet said he was set to make his Rolling Loud California debut at Hollywood Park in Los Angeles on March 15-16, 2025.
