Rhys Langston

Rhys Langston is a rapper and multi-instrumentalist born, raised, and based in Los Angeles, CA. Live in concert and recorded, his works are available in high-definition stereo and full-frontal honesty. As a performer he combines rap, singing, live beat effects, stand-up comedy, and avant-garde poetry into masterful, self-aware spectacles (cue the eye rolls). As a recording artist, he largely self-produces, expertly engineering every facet of his music. Within his releases, his songs' concepts and sounds can range from crooning ballads about a failed relationship funneled through depressed jitters of caffeine to anthemic, 808-heavy take-downs of environmental racism (as a few light examples).

Consequently, he has earned kind nods from the New York Times, the LA Times, SPIN, AFROPUNK, DJ Booth, HipHopDX, HYPEBEAST, Bandcamp, STEREOGUM, and others.
