Although scholars have debated the actual birthdate of JC, capitalist Americans have conveniently pinned that date to December 25th. But don't wish the New Jersey native and now Harlem resident Kyle Rapps a Merry Christmas, he simply doesn't believe in that stuff. And if you were to look back at his checkered childhood, along with the life he currently leads, I don't think his Frank Cross like similarities would be of any surprise. The production, courtesy of NYC's Pan, is brimming with nostalgia, as Rapps takes you back to the days of pretending to understand Liquid Swords and watching the Knicks lose on MSG. Some things don't change…at least he observes one Christmas tradition for many Americas -- indulging in Chinese food. So instead of heading to the mall for the year end sales, take a trip down memory lane with Kyle Rapps, and have yourself a happy new year, ya filthy animal!

"God-Like" is the first release for Kyle's upcoming album "Colossus Theory", solely produced by Vulkan the Krusader. The two met in the NYC rap scene a few years back and last year Kyle called upon Vulkan for production on his Mishka sponsored Hefna Gwap collaboration, European Tic Tacs. Vulkan has since made a name for himself as producer for the track "Excuse Me" off A$AP ROCKY's latest album At. Long. Last. A$AP Look for "Colossus Theory" to drop this fall and to feature Rapp's perverted bassy delivery to accompany Vulkan's signature cinematic style of production. Artwork by Ernesto Ortega.

In times where cities are being gentrified right and left and locals are being priced out of neighborhoods by wall streeters and trust fund hipsters, Kyle Rapps decided to leave Harlem and move to Mexico City.   DF (Distrito Federal) is the second release off his upcoming album Colossus Theory solely produced by Vulkan the Krusader.   Haunting Mariachi horns and thundersome drums lay the landscape for Kyle to illustrate his encounters with "broke taco stand ni**as" and elderly transvestite prostitutes.

Kyle Rapps delivers a distorted, paranoid new banger for those who keep it 1984, with “Bunker,” produced by NYC’s Dollar Bin.

The track is dedicated to his brother, Ben, who resides in the rapper’s former stomping grounds in New Jersey. And whenever they get together, Rapps (who now resides in Mexico City) walks away with lyrical inspiration in the form of out-there ideas and perspectives, some of which helped shape the Cannibal Ox-reminiscent “Bunker.”

Those thoughts show up in the form of bars like, “You thought it was rap/ I’m an agent transmittin’ from a submarine 55 miles underneath the nautical map.” Rapps also gives a shout out to the Metroid video game franchise, claims that we all have chips under our skin, and potentially gets nabbed before his verse even ends.

As we wait for more new material from Rapps, be sure to check out his recently released Colossus Theory effort. It was produced entirely by Vulkan the Krusader, whose credits include A$AP Rocky’s “Excuse Me” off At. Long. Last. A$AP.

Bunker (prod. By Dollar Bin)

Over the years, Kyle Rapps has displayed a seemingly innate ability to deftly shift from one sound to the next, all while remaining true to his artistic vision. The dexterous vocalist drives that point home with “Michigan,” the rapper’s latest release. It’s a banger, fueled by an electro-rap bravado that matches the track’s core message of a man who can’t help but lust after any attractive woman he sees—in spite of the fact he has a good woman at home.

Whereas the previously released “Bunker” had more of a paranoia-laced haze to it, “Michigan” is almost surprisingly catchy given its mysterious subject matter. You can thank producer Belief for that, as his floor-stomping beat pushes Rapps to switch up his flow throughout the track. That’s particularly true of the verses, where the Mexico City-residing emcee jumps in and out of the pocket before delivering one of his catchiest hooks to date.

While “Michigan” is a loosie and not affiliated with an upcoming project, it’ll no doubt leave you wondering exactly where Rapps is headed with his next effort. One thing’s for sure, it won’t be like anything we’ve heard before. “Michigan” is now available for stream and download through all major digital retailers.

Michigan (prod. by Belief)

Stream/Download (Smart URL): http://smarturl.it/KyleRappsFiction

Never one to color inside the genre lines, Mexico City-residing artist Kyle Rapps continues pushing the boundaries of Hip-Hop with his wavy and experimental new single, “Fiction,” which serves as the fist leak off his forthcoming self-produced project, 'Perverse Ramblings.' 

Much like his previous single, last summer’s Belief-produced “Michigan,” there’s a catchiness to the madness being spun by Rapps. As he chronicles his sexual exploits over the years—and be prepared, there are many, both good and bad—he also weaves together a sing-along hook where the repeated line of, “Everything is fiction,” is bound to get stuck in listeners’ heads.

But there’s more to “Fiction” than its regaling of tales of dirty deeds. As entertaining as those portions of the track may be, it also boasts clever references to classic shows like 'Perfect Strangers' and 'Seinfeld' amidst reflections on dreams of playing in the NHL. Above all else, this is the first time that Rapps has done more than, well, rap on his own track. He produced the entirety of “Fiction,” which boasts snarling synthesizers and ill percussion—a combination he’s slayed in the past but not one he’s done on his own.

“Fiction” is now available through all major digital retailers and streaming platforms, and can be downloaded au-gratis, courtesy of HYPEDDIT.

Perverse Ramblings

Fiction

In addition to continuing to flex his chops as a producer, Mexico City-based artist Kyle Rapps is showcasing his ability to blend filthy raps and lyrics addressing social issues on “Eulogy.” It’s the latest single off his upcoming and appropriately titled new album, 'Perverse Ramblings.'

Whereas preceding single “Fiction” was steeped in tales of lust with multiple women, “Eulogy” also features the New Jersey native blurring the lines between topics. Backed by his own electronic-leaning production, Rapps goes all the way in on a relationship that was filled with some of the most graphic sexual moments you can imagine. Seriously, if you can think of something even remotely nasty, it’s probably on here—even the fact that he “used to f*ck her in the water like a hippopotamus.”

The only thing is, there’s also a societal weight that runs throughout the sexuality. And that’s exactly why he sing-songs the following on the all-too-catchy chorus: “This is ain’t a love song, it’s a eulogy/ For all good shi*t we had between you and me/ For all the black kings that had to die stupidly, it’s a eulogy.” You see, Rapps may be a self-proclaimed “dirtbag with a heart of gold,” but there’s another layer here. The overtly sexual nature of the track is more about the way that we screw each other—and how our greater society happens to f*ck certain people more than others.

“Eulogy” is now available through all major digital retailers and streaming platforms, and can be downloaded au-gratis, courtesy of HYPEDDIT. Stay tuned for more leaks off 'Perverse Ramblings,' which is due out later this year!

Eulogy

“Latrell” is a musical fever dream brought to life by Kyle Rapps’ stream-of-consciousness braggadocio paired with his own cocktail of hazy production. It’s also the latest single from the Mexico-residing rapper/producer’s upcoming project, 'Perverse Ramblings.'
 
For those of you wondering, yes, this track is indeed an homage to one of the NBA’s most controversial players, Latrell Sprewell. He’s also one of Rapps’ favorite players of all time, a sentiment that the artist brings to life through references to Spree’s infamous choking incident in addition to his overall don’t-give-a-f*ck swagger. 
 
“It makes me miss the days when the NBA was edgier and more hardbody,” Rapps says of the track’s inspiration. “Not to take any skills away from Steph Curry or anyone else, but the softer cleaner, pretty boy vibes don’t ride with me as much.
 
“Latrell was more real, more human—with tragic flaws and measured virtues,” Rapps adds.
 
Those feelings are at the core of “Latrell,” a quick-fire listen made all the more engaging by the juxtaposition of its vocals and instrumental. Rapps spits with a dead-eyed, seemingly breathless delivery over his own otherwise-summery production. It’s an intriguing pairing, and one that certainly captures Sprewell’s personality. 

Give the track a stream, which is now available for stream and download through all major digital retailers, and be on the lookout for the forthcoming release of, 'Perverse Ramblings.'

Stream 'Perverse Ramblings': 

'Perverse Ramblings' is the work of a Hip-Hop eccentric with no contemporaries. While your favorite emcee may drop a handful of sex fueled rhymes here or there, they’ve got nothing on Kyle Rapps. The Mexico-dwelling artist has outfitted his latest project with layers of not just over-the-top sexuality, but bits and pieces of humanity. And it’s those snippets of reality that truly ground 'Perverse Ramblings,' all while making it Rapps’ best work yet.

If you’ve been following the rapper-producer’s singles this past year, chances are you’ve been anticipating the album’s release with fervor. Each single, from “Fiction” to “Eulogy,” displayed hints of what to expect from the full project both lyrically and sonically. This is actually Rapps’ first time producing his own entire effort, and he’s got some serious chops. Not only is his production style perfectly tailored for his eccentric vocals, but he brings a cohesive vision fueled by noisy synthetics and hard-hitting percussion.

Also, on those aforementioned tracks, Rapps displayed his ability to blend sexed-up bravado with real-life pain, something he really brings to light on “Touch.” Take these lines, for instance: “My mother died of cancer but I’m not looking for no pity/ I’m just movin’ through the city lookin’ for somethin’ real pretty/ When it comes to bein’ a boyfriend, I’m real shitty/ ‘cuz I cheat and act real pissy.”

It’s not all doom and gloom for Rapps, however, because he’s equally as deft at providing levity. That goes for when he turns classic rock songs upside down on “Hallelujah,” “Dust,” and “Horse,” in addition to this fantastic bit from the single “Fiction”: “Woke up to my neighbors playing 36 Chambers/ Then my ex bust through the door like Kramer/ Danger.”

As you may have noticed, 'Perverse Ramblings' no doubt stays true to part of its name (the perversion), but these are not mere ramblings. Rapps is telling a clearly outlined story here, and it’s one of love, pain, heartbreak, and more sex than you could possibly imagine. If that’s not something you can relate to on some level, maybe you just need to marinate on this one.

'Perverse Ramblings' is now available through Rapps’ own imprint with distribution via EMPIRE.

Pull Up *Perverse Ramblings Is Now Available!!

Following last year’s innovative 'Perverse Ramblings' LP, Kyle Rapps returns with searing stream-of-conscious raps about the issues plaguing our nation on his self-produced new single, “Dark Hour.”

The track borrows its hook and overarching message from Martin Luther King Jr.’s 1967 speech at the National Conference for New Politics. Among other points, he makes it clear that the U.S. is distinctly divided in two; a statement that still rings true more than 50 years later. Rapps is obviously aware of this, choosing not just to include the speech sample in the chorus, but to also drive home MLK’s points in his own words.

However, “Dark Hour” isn’t only an indictment of our times, though it does feature a particularly potent lyrical shot at 45. Rapps also uses his hypnotizing production to bring to light another struggle—the desire for sex and perhaps not knowing the best time to ask for it. Without giving away too much of the borderline-hysterical second verse, the Mexico-based artist’s bars about getting flipped off by a female are particularly rewind-worthy.

You can hear them for yourself by listening to “Dark Hour,” which is now available through all major digital retailers and streaming platforms.
