🎵 About the Track:
iShine is a high-energy, one-verse track where Karanastic flexes his lyrical muscles over a southern rap-inspired hook. With clever bars and a playful attitude, this song mixes hustle mentality with humor and wit. From tackling 9-to-5 grind culture to shining like a comet through space, Karanastic makes it clear that no matter the odds, he’s here to shine. The deep-vocal hook adds a catchy, anthemic vibe that’ll have you chanting along.

🎶 Lyrics Highlights:

    "Corporate days, rap at night, still I shine it shine it bright."
    "Like a lonely comet traveling my way through space, shining till I hit the Earth and make it a blank canvas."
    "Boom shackalacka, don’t like none of ya cacka, and you’ll find I’m like an old man—I’m fucking out my rocker."

The self proclaimed and world renowned “Internet’s Best Rapper” has been recording songs independently for over a dozen years. This is hard-hitting, dope hip hop created with a fury of emotional intelligence that will rock your senses. People who don't like rap music like Karanastic.



The masterful lyrical flows found within the audio touch on subjects people care about - like life, pop-culture, conspiracy theories and a swarm of other nonsense that consumes the world.



Karanastic makes songs from his unique perspective of life as a thirty-something year old middle-class business professional. He spends entirely too much time philosophizing about living in the Matrix. Often lost within the depths of the internet, this West Coast rapper proudly admits to getting inspiration from pro-wrestling, Pokemon cards and fake news.
