VEXXILLE (born Kaleb Rasmussen on December 20, 1998) is an American underground musician, rapper, and visual artist known for his genre-blending approach and emotionally raw lyricism. He gained local attention through his involvement in the 5150 SYNDICATE collective and has performed with a variety of underground acts across the western United States.

Early life and career

VEXXILLE began professionally releasing music in early 2019 at the age of 20, after moving from Salt Lake City back to his hometown of Heber City, Utah. He lived in a shed behind his parents' house, where he began collaborating with his younger brother, Sawyer Rasmussen. Together they formed the underground music and merchandise collective known as 5150 SYNDICATE. With the support of Sawyer, as well as artists like Dirty Chino from Dogma Society and his cousin Gateway Mafia, VEXXILLE released his debut mixtape, Terminal vol. 1.

Loss of his brother and musical growth

In early December 2020, Sawyer Rasmussen died from an accidental fentanyl overdose. Following his brother's death, VEXXILLE devoted himself to music in his honor. On February 14, 2021 — Sawyer’s birthday — VEXXILLE released the single "Triple 7", reflecting on his grief and the emotional impact of his brother’s passing.

Later that year, he released the album Vade, followed by the EP REDUXX. In November 2021, he opened for Black Smurf in a live performance alongside Dogma Society. In January 2022, he released the alternative album Vesper, and in March 2022, he performed with underground artist Nascar Aloe.

Continued success and live performances

Following these releases, VEXXILLE expanded his presence in the local scene. He released the EP Bleach and joined the 2022 leg of Wifisfuneral's Highway to Hell Tour. Later that year, he dropped Terminal vol. 2 and began working closely with ODDY GXLD.

In April 2024, he performed alongside Caskey, Taysty Beats, and Angel Hill during the Return of the Black Sheep Tour. That same year, he also performed a notable show in Seattle.

Style and recent work

VEXXILLE’s music has shifted over time from heavy dark trap and industrial rap toward more alternative and emotionally atmospheric genres. His recent singles — including "I Cut My Wrist for Alexis" — showcase a more melodic and experimental direction, while maintaining the raw energy and emotional vulnerability that defines his style.
