Straight from the heart of Soufside ATL—Clayton County, aka Jurassic Park—rising artist MELLO OLLEM is carving out his lane with his latest release, “CODEINE” ft. Von Fincho. With a style that's gritty, unfiltered, and completely authentic to his environment, Mello isn’t just making music—he’s documenting a lifestyle.

The Creative Process: No Pen, Just Vibes
There’s something special about artists who create from pure energy, and Mello is a prime example. “We was at the studio dranking,” he shares. “My engineer uploaded a guitar beat, and the first thing that popped in my head was ‘CODEINE.’ I don’t write—we let our thoughts run.” That spontaneous approach brings a rawness to the track that can’t be replicated. The lyrics feel lived-in, the flows are organic, and the chemistry between Mello and Von Fincho is undeniable.
This method of working without a pen and letting the moment guide the session speaks volumes about Mello's confidence in his artistry. It's about capturing a feeling in real time—no overthinking, just vibes that translate directly from life to mic.

Has been for a while, but we really just getting started.”
This song isn’t a one-off or a trend-chaser—it’s a marker in Mello’s journey, showing his versatility and hunger. The blend of melodic tones over a haunting guitar-driven beat is just a glimpse of his creative range. It’s also a reminder that some of the rawest talent is still bubbling in the underground, waiting to erupt.
