Who is Mod Sun? Here’s everything you need to know about Bella Thorne’s boyfriend
If you don’t read anything else, you MUST know he believes LSD ‘enlightened’ him
by Una Dabiero
I'll be honest with you, there's so many rappers these days, I can barely keep track of them. Soundcloud has just done THAT. One of the smaller rappers on the scene is Mod Sun, a 31-year-old from Minnesota who claims to be a musician, author, and poet. Are you wondering who Mod Sun is, or who is Bella Thorne DATING? Or are you just looking for some Mod Sun quotes? Here's everything you need to know about the Hippy Hop musician.
Mod Sun is a kinda famous rapper
He has 400,000 Instagram followers, and his 65,000 SoundCloud followers.
But he actually got his start in metal
He was a drummer for TWO post-hardcore metal bands: Four Letters Lie and Scary Kids Scaring Kids. Don't ask me what post-hardcore means. I don't know and I don't want to know.
Mod Sun's genre of music is called 'Hippy Hop'
Which is allegedly a kind of psychedelic take on hip hop, with an emphasis on living a happy life. Instead of, like, you know, Gucci.
He's released a LOT of music
He released his first EP in 2010 called The Hippy Hop EP. He's also released two other EPs: In MOD We Trust (2011) and Happy as Fuck (2012). Currently, Mod Sun is working on a studio album. And apparently, it's taking a long time.
He's best friends with Machine Gun Kelly, another OK rapper
The two recorded "Sublime" together and also take strange backstage photos.
There's a Mod Sun book
It's called Did I Ever Wake Up? and it's about him finding enlightenment with an LSD trip. Yes, I'm serious. He says after the trip, he decided happiness was a choice. He now follows the law of attraction, and believes if you radiate positivity, positivity will come to you. No wonder he considers himself a hippie.
There's a Mod Sun store
Mod Sun merch sells… Mod Sun merch. Like, tee shirts and his book and shit. Is anyone buying these?
And there's a Mod Sun tour… kind of
His official BB tour ended in March 2018, but it looks like Mod Sun still performs one-off shows with other acts. There's two left this Spring, but he will probably definitely tour again after his album is out.
Mod Sun is Bella Thorne's boyfriend
The two have been dating since Fall 2017 and seem to be super into each other.
Bella directed his music video for the song "address on the internet."
They perform together.
And it kinda seems like they live together.
CAN YOU BELIEVE THATS THE HOUSE?! IT LITERALLY LOOKS LIKE AN ITERATION OF APPLE SIGMA PIE.
Bella Thorne has a tattoo of Mod Sun's handwriting on her arm
Of course, it says 'I love you.'
And the only thing Mod Sun loves more than Bella Thorne is marijuana
Just look at his Instagram.
