Napolian Biography

Napolian aka Ian Christian Evans (June 8, 1992 - June 29, 2021) was an electronic musician and producer. He attended Taft High School, the alumni of which includes Ice Cube and Eazy-E.

Following his 2011 split release with Computer Dreams and his 2012 EP Rejoice, his debut full-length Incursio was released on Software in 2014. The next year, he released a collaborative album with Airbird (aka Joel Ford) called Mr. Foolish. In 2019, Napolian featured on Yves Tumor’s song “Applaud.” Evans passed away at age 29 June 29, 2021.
