A writer first
xobehtedistuO is the music of Steven Hillen, a songwriter from Ocala, Florida. He writes every song himself, from the lyrics to the production direction, and makes his records in Suno, an AI music platform. His catalog moves from country rap and Midwest emo to funk, R&B, gospel rock and contemporary country. On several of his newest releases the lead vocal is his own voice, trained in Suno’s voice feature. He releases independently on xobehtedistuO Label through DistroKid. His single On Lungs Alone came out on August 23, 2026, and its music video has earned three festival honors.
Music has been part of Steven’s life for as long as he can remember: show choir and church choir, All-State competitions performing Guys and Dolls, and a letter in music in high school. Every song starts with words, most often a poem, a heavy thought or an emotion he needs to get out. In his words, the words are the main course and the rhythm is the side dish.
Vocalist, music producer, AI enthusiast, futurist, and creator of courage-fueled worlds. My life has been both a mirror and an escape, where starships launch, lessons hit hard, and minds are emboldened to blaze their own trail. I dare people to dream, to question, and to grow, even if it hurts.Steven Hillen · xobehtedistuO

Creator Spotlight: First Look
Gary Whittaker of JackRighteous.com profiles Steven’s words-first process, his own-voice releases and the production cues he writes into every song.
I just want to create a vibe and a nostalgia with my music, something for people to enjoy, dance to, vibe to, and just feel. AI is just the vessel that I pour my years of words and experiences into to create a musical “pulse.”Steven Hillen
