Earache Records is pleased to announce the signing of Washington D.C. trap artist ALIREZA to a worldwide recording deal.
A pioneering artist at the forefront of the dark trap genre, ALIREZA combines elements of trap and rap with rock and metal, with influences ranging from XXXTENTACION to BRING ME THE HORIZON. Following a recent performance at Afropunk Fest in Brooklyn, (curated in part by TYLER, THE CREATOR), ALIREZA has been in the studio with producer Jason Rich (LIL PEEP, LIL XAN) working on his debut album 'Endlyss', which is due for release in 2019 on Earache Records.
"I don't think they're ready for what I'm about to do to the world," comments ALIREZA. "Maybe the world isn't ready, honestly. I'm technically the first hip-hop signee on this huge metal label, but I find my way leaning in a lot of genres all at once so I'm excited to show it all."
After making the jump from his metalcore band LOUDER THAN QUIET to a solo hip-hop/trap artist, ALIREZA is now ready to take on the world with his debut single "Never Seen", which has premiered on Revolver here <https://www.revolvermag.com/music/hear-earache-alireza-new-song-never-seen> and is available now on all major streaming platforms.
"It's rare you see a guy in a band that can bar out," continues ALIREZA. "And even more rare to see a guy who can bar out but still be talking about something with substance. That's literally what I was aiming for with this first single. Setting the tone so you don't think I'm just some random trap metal artist, and giving you real hip-hop, unadulterated bars. The video alluded to gentrification [the renovating of deteriorated urban neighbourhoods, raising property values and often displacing low-income residents] in a very indirect way but that's exactly how it takes over so I don't think there's a way more fitting to show you what's going on."
