Our Story
Bounce Out Records was founded by Ave in 2016 and made it official as an LLC in 2023.
It started as a SoundCloud page pushin’ underground gems, a spot to give real spitters some shine when nobody else would. What began as a Cali rap blog for the homies turned into a movement—built to spotlight talent the industry been sleepin’ on.
As the brand grew, so did the impact. Bounce Out became a top-tier promo plug for West Coast music—pushing thousands of records, linking with hundreds of artists, and building momentum that couldn’t be ignored.
Between 2021 and 2023, we started droppin’ our own original content—Weekly Highlights, New Releases, the fan-favorite Munchie Meals series, and our first official cypher on YouTube.
By 2024, we cracked the gates wide open—partnering with talent not just in Cali, but all across the map.
Behind the Vision
We spot talent, build with ‘em, and take things to the next level. Simple.
Anyone can tap into our promo and content plays—we use that to find the real ones. If we see potential? We’re talking distro deals, collabs, maybe even a full partnership.
We handle the backend: distribution, rollouts, marketing, promotion—so you can focus on the music.
Real Recognize Real
At Bounce Out, we on the hunt for the ones they overlook—the hidden gems out them trenches.
We watched the industry play blind to Cali’s wave for years. Now we see other cities goin’ through the same.
It don’t matter where you from—if you got it, we’ll help you get heard.
With some hustle, the right support, and our platform behind you, that dream ain’t that far.
Deeper Than Rap
The Origin of Steezy Tracks
The founder of Bounce Out, Ave, met Steez back in middle school — locked in long before the label. The two graduated together in 2019.
We called him Steez‘ cause no matter the time — bro was always shinin’. Style wasn’t forced — it was just who he was. Always clean, always standin’ out.
Before Instagram and TikTok were the wave, we were pushin’ heavy on SoundCloud. That was the digital stomping ground where Bounce Out first planted its flag.
In early 2020, Steez lost his cousin, Anthony Young — the original “Steezy.” As he used to say, when you got STEEZY — style with EEZ — you always wear a SM;)E.
To honor his legacy, we introduced Steezy Tracks — a playlist for the ones that shine the brightest. Just diamonds.
