With its organic energy, minimalist yet powerful production, and bold visual and sonic imprint, Ibbi Too Vicious continues to redefine the contours of the contemporary music scene. For those looking for an artist willing to shake up conventions while remaining rooted in raw, authentic emotion, La Coste is a must-see.”

“Storming with emotional urgency, pouring down mood-infused washed-out dreamscape, ibbi Too Vicious brings an indie twist of woozy pop beat in “Astrogirl,” easily charm the music lovers. A hint of Machine Gun Kelly’s emo rocker energy mixed in his own brand of oozed coolness distinguish his sound from being too “mainstream” and cliche to an unique edge of hard-hitting banger that you can’t help but love knee-deep.”

“No matter how he projects it, ibbi Too Vicious is undeniably catchy. He’s on the fast track to Fresh Finds without the overdone cliches of four chord pop. He’s got more originality, more artistic integrity than just another soul selling starboy. ibbi is a truth seeker, citing Steve Jobs, The Beatles, and Young Thug all as influences in the same breath. He is unabashed by the perils of exclusivity, starting out selling short stories in elementary school for fifty cents. That process and practice bred a fierce wordsmith who can weave his way though our modern story in elegant prose.”

From Cincinnati, OH, ibbi Too Vicious (Ibrahim Munir) is a Pakistani-American singer-songwriter who is breaking the boxes of genre. ibbi started making music at the end of 2020 while he was cooped up during the pandemic.
ibbi is heavily inspired by Steve Jobs, Young Thug, and The Beatles.

Reviewers often note he has a contemporary take on a traditional rock style. Notable accomplishments include opening for Lil Xan, Wifisfuneral, Jumex, and Turich Benjy.
ibbi has always loved writing since he was young: in elementary school he used to write short stories and sell them to his classmates for $0.50. That love for writing has stayed over the years, and his lyrical talent is one of the main differentiators between him and other artists. Whether it’s pop, alternative, or indie, his distinctive style stands out on every track with both his mood-infused vocals and emotionally urgent lyrics.
