Star Strife is a versatile musical artist from Portland, Oregon. She moved to Los Angeles in 2017 to pursue music, leaving behind a potential career in fighting. Star Strife is a “dreamer to the point of delusion” influenced by various musical genres, classical literature and music, her Latin heritage, chronic night-terrors, anime and video games. 
Her style is hard to define and has been compared to many artists. She and her team have chosen neo-trip-hop as a provisional genre, with a focus on the hip-hop element, and created a static artist collective called NOTGENIUS with her main partners, TYMN and Dantexyz
She works with this collective in mind. In June of 2023, she launched her first project, Blue Spirit, a high-concept album with the help of her renowned mentor/engineer, JoelNuma. The project was made in a small practice studio in Portland with poor ventilation and soundproofing. All 10 songs deal with the theme of the project from a different angle: the inevitability of morality. 
Blue Spirit asks, “If one is evil, have they always been evil? Must they remain evil? Can one truly oppose one’s nature?” The rest is for you to decide.
