A Disruptive, Hardcore and Provocative Force in Hip Hop – DAMIUS Unveils New Work ‘119’

Embodying his iconic Dark Rap and gothic Hip Hop appeal, DAMIUS continues to enthrall audiences, with a soundscape that’s both intense and vulnerable.

San Antonio, TX —March 11th, 2023 – Arguably the artist’s boldest and most passionate drop yet, ‘119’ is a provocative, stunning, and gripping record. The striking album is one which is rooted within Dark Rap and pays testament to an artist who has rapidly gained a dedicated following in his niche.

DAMIUS’ newest drop envelops audiences with his characteristic ‘dark rap,’ echoing a raw and authentic imagery, underlined with brooding beats and dark lyricism. Creating an ethereal yet thoroughly enigmatic sound, the artist’s music is one which paints vivid and introspective lyrics.

‘119’ builds onto a formidable, choral sound alongside a blended orchestra which highlights confessional stories which listeners will surely relate to. Truly, the only way is up for the artist as he continues to navigate the music world with his unique sounds.

Having released on March 3rd, 2023, ‘119’ often incites and provokes audiences to feel the strength of all their pent-up emotions. Exploring the strength of aggression, the record is an effort to grapple with life’s hard truths, through a raw and unfiltered medium of expression.

“The music is unique because it can go from being very aggressive to being very funny at any second all while maintaining a very dark sounding song.” Notes the artist regarding his music.

Enlightening notions of hope, resilience, strength, and adversity, DAMIUS’ future plan is to do live shows and go on tour, displaying his inimitable talents with the rest of the world. Praised extensively for his rich, visceral emotional depth and talented range, DAMIUS’ music includes eclectic tracks such as the 2 million+ streams-capturing track “Pray” and the single- “Kill or Be Killed.”
