American, multi genre record producer, songwriter, consultant. Born Marcus Evans on August 31, 1986 in Colorado Springs, Colorado to Wayne Evans and Nancy Johnson. Originally, learning to make beats for himself and his crew to have original instrumentals to rap over, he slowly evolved a love and passion for many sounds and genres. Eventually learning and being the local mixing and mastering engineer, people started realizing he is the “ONLY… artist” involved in each step of the process, which ultimately coined the name ONLYist. Throughout his music journey and his love for other sounds and styles, ONLYist adopted the philosophy that music is nothing but vibes; vibes are energy, and good energy can heal the pain in others. ONLYist combines a unique palette of heavy hitting sounds while having the ability to make his music seem familiar to his listeners. As a fan of many genres ONLYist’s influences include artists such as Timbaland, J Dilla, TroyBoi, Will i am, G Jones, 21 Pilots, Feed Me, Kanye West and many more. After producing tracks for several artists, and achieving credits on many records, in 2022 ONLYist decided it’s time to share his art with the world.
