Saylorsburg, PA — The 22-year-old Appalachian rap artist has returned to the public eye after a 5-month-long social media hiatus with a new album titled, “You’ve Arrived At: Mystery Babylon!” described by Nate Lemcke as “Haunting and revelatory– a demonic ode to the unseen worlds.”
Dark, energetic, and compelling, this album stands in stark contrast to ToyBokz’s previous release. In an unprecedented act of bravery, he channels the devil himself, elucidating the heinous plans of the dark prince and the price we all must pay. As of October 24th, 2024, the album is available on every streaming platform.
The intro’s sinister theme continues throughout the rest of the project’s 9 songs with the exceptions of the album’s comic relief track, “Fuck Dem Aliens,” “The Frontlines,” an upbeat and catchy tune, though somewhat juxtaposed in its subject matter, and the album’s closing track, “God’s Carnival” which brings about childhood nostalgia for reasons that are hard to articulate.
The album makes apparent that ToyBokz has rediscovered his sense of paranoia and anti-establishment rhetoric during his hiatus. Elon Musk falls into ToyBokz’s crosshairs multiple times throughout the album and is the butt of multiple jokes on “Fuck Dem Aliens” though the dark and serious tone of track #3, “The Artifex,” which contains readings from a lecture by Anthroposophy founder, Rudolf Steiner, really puts this sense of paranoia on full display. Put bluntly, it borders on psychosis. A similar tone is taken on track #7, The Weapon, where ToyBokz takes aim at technological advancements like AI and Neuralink as well as the idea of extraterrestrial life and simulation theory.
This chilling account of spiritual life under the demonic restraints of late-stage capitalism is exactly the album we need to wake us up from the sleep under which we’ve all been laboring. ToyBokz may not be the prophet we wanted but he’s certainly the prophet we need and the secrets of his teachings are contained in “You’ve Arrived At: Mystery Babylon!”
