From the quiet corners of Delaware emerges a voice that’s anything but silent — Lil Scrome28th. Over the past five years, this self-made artist has been quietly building a foundation of raw drill energy and street authenticity that’s catching fire beyond his home state. Inspired by Lil Baby, Scrome28th brings a style that’s both gritty and melodic, reflecting the realities of the streets with an unfiltered edge.
We sat down with Lil Scrome28th to get a glimpse into the mind of one of Delaware’s most promising unsigned talents.
Q: Tell us about your journey — how did you get into music?
Lil Scrome28th: I started writing when I was real young, just putting my life into bars. Drill caught my ear early, and I wanted to bring that sound back home. It’s been a grind for five years, learning to produce beats, write my own lyrics, and even make my own videos. It’s all about doing me, no shortcuts.
Q: Your breakout track “Where They At” really put you on the map. What was behind that song?
Lil Scrome28th: That one was real — talking about loyalty, trust, and holding down the block. It was the moment I felt like my music was connecting with people who live that life every day.
Q: You’re known for handling a lot yourself — producing, writing, video concepts. Why is that independence important?
Lil Scrome28th: I wanna control my vision. When you do it yourself, it’s authentic. I’m not trying to fit into anyone else’s mold. Plus, it’s been a learning experience that’s made me stronger in this game.
Q: What’s next for Lil Scrome28th?
Lil Scrome28th: I’m dropping new music all the time — my latest just dropped June 14th, and the next one’s on July 15th. My goals are big — record deal, Vegas shows, touring with the greats like Lil Baby or Future. I’m just getting started.
Though he’s only rocked crowds as small as 20 people so far, Lil Scrome28th’s unwavering focus and growing fanbase hint at something bigger brewing in Delaware’s underground scene. With no label deals or big-name features yet, he’s proving that passion, hustle, and authenticity still hold power in hip hop’s new era.
