X-RAY Presents: Monster Mixes - Doomsday Remix - SOLD OUT

Out Of The Blue

LA 2020

Sometimes we chase perfection and we don't release our best art. Art is made to be raw and imperfect because we are human beings and our existence is one of contradiction and imperfection. Our flaws are what makes life beautiful, harnessing those attributes to create is power. Why wait to say something? I wrote this in 2015 after a rough year that would change my life forever. I just wanted to express how thankful I was for life and the constant inspiration that the Earth and our creator gives us all. The track is produced by @SoupOverHere a good friend of mine who gave me the blessing to drop it. Here's to positivity, a constant theme in my life is that Love supersedes everything. Below you will find the lyrics.

I'm inspired by dope beats
And fresh kicks
The streets all around the world
And the fly chicks
Inspired by humanity
Our insanity
Is fueled by vanity
Inspired by the L you hand to me
Inspired by emcees of all categories
From Nas to the Migos
We all have a story
Hip Hop is all encompassing
You fronting when
You pit art against art
You are a sucka then
Divide in conquer
Is the phrase that inspired masters
You and your divisive ways
The product of the aftermath
Of Rome
Philosophy is blown through
The roof
I'm inspired by big body coupes
If I ever loose my kuff
I'm inspired by the Henny
Heinekens or the Remy
Only if I had pennies
For the rhymes I tossed
In waste baskets 
Could of been hot
When I was watching Kobe
Takin them inspirational shots
I'm inspired by life
Poetry, literature, Renaissance Art
Don't forget Brogue interiors
I'm inspired by space, time, and God my creator
Sometimes I even get inspired by haters
From Yoda to Darth Vader
And every Marvel Comic
The memories of my seeds diapers
Even their vomit
After loud burps
From the heart beat
On my chest
Inspired the life coming from my wife's breast
The sun on my face
The smell of the ocean
Adam and Eve
The seasons change
God with the brush
Painting the leaves
Hope it's this colorful when I leave
Hit subatomic
Born in another dimension in the tropics
Inspired by words, language, sounds
And the Jazz
Inspired by the future
The same way as the past
Looking for a cure for death
So the love can always last
Memories of mama J
Giving both my babies baths
Inspired by Marcus Garvey
And Malik Shabazz
The Moorish and Israelite brothers who
Teach the math
Inspired by the 7 and the Crescent
Since prepubescent
Through adolescence
Lost my homies to the essence
Inspired by Kareem, Eddie, Pree, and Lil Mike, Nate Woods, Pete and all my brothers who lost might
My insight is what my pen writes
I'm sharp been tight
Love is power
And it inspired me to get right

Sic Sense - Conscience Abduction (Prod. Erf Productions)(1995)

American Hip Hop has its roots on the Eastern seaboard, especially the Bronx and Brooklyn. Boston and Massachusetts have contributed to that legacy, consistently fostering artists that rival the industry's best. From Cousin Stizz's streetwise tales to BIA's genre-defying style and the enduring influence of pioneers like Ed O.G. and Big Shug, Boston's Hip Hop scene has always teemed with talent. In this dynamic mix, Rapper, Producer, and Engineer Abyss comfortably alongside these influential figures, boasting nearly two decades of career.

His musical journey traces back to the 80s, shaped by an extended family entrenched in the music industry. At 15, his mother gifted him a home computer, launching an unstoppable musical trajectory. Inspired by 90s hip-hop icons like Biggie, Onyx, Big L, 2Pac, Nas, and local mavericks Seti Tzu, Lou Showers, and Cyrus Dazine, Abyss purposefully avoids mainstream conformity. His sound, marked by earthy tones, robust drums, and gritty sample stabs, melds with a lyrical flow, shifting seamlessly between moody, aggressive, humorous, and energetic tracks.

With nine albums and numerous singles, Abyss also shares the stage with Apathy, Slaine, and Tragedy Khadafi, amongst others. His razor-sharp lyrics addressing life's struggles, addiction, and boastful rap competitiveness have resonated on radio, magazines, online platforms, and Top 10 charts.

As 2024 unfolds, Abyss promises more with two self-produced albums exploring remixes and diverse styles. Showcasing an evolving sound, his future remains as bright as its inception. Step into the soundscapes of Abyss; it's a place of expressive authenticity.
