Elijah Faustin (born September 27, 2002), professionally known as Smokingskul, is a recording artist born in Stockholm, Sweden, and based in Naples, Florida.

Skul started making music as a sixth grader in 2014 but didn’t officially start his career until 2018, releasing his first song, “T-Shirt,” under the alias Smoke Da Reaper.

He found success early in his career, with 2022 being a proficient year, both in terms of music releases and publicity as SoundCloud cosigned him. Coinciding with this, he signed to Simple Stupid Records—an imprint label of Geffen Records in June 2022, but has since left. Skul would then sign to KA$HDAMI’s INFINITI Recordings in November 2025 with the release of his fifth studio album INVERNKA.

Skuls signature sound consists of an aggressive punch-in delivery on hard-hitting beats—courtesy of his right-hand producers tdf, perc40, Jake Hansen, and boolymon.
