ericdoa

ericdoa, born Eric George Lopez in 2002, is an American rapper, singer-songwriter and producer from Connecticut, affiliated with the NeilaWorld collective. He began releasing music under the name Killeric before rebranding as ericdoa, and his early work leaned toward dark, trap-influenced rap that reflected the SoundCloud underground scene of the late 2010s.

Over time his sound shifted toward emo and alternative rock influences fused with melodic, heavily processed electronic production, placing him within the hyperpop-adjacent and digicore-leaning wave of young internet-native artists. He writes and produces much of his own material, often drawing on personal experiences and past relationships, and moves fluidly between singing and rapping within the same songs.

His catalog, including tracks like «fantasize» and «movinglikeazombie», reflects a genre-blurring approach that pulls from rap, pop, electronic and rock in equal measure. As part of the broader NeilaWorld scene, he represents a generation of artists who built their careers directly through online platforms rather than traditional label pipelines.
