DEFINITION OF FRESH

With DARIUS , producers Louis Menace and DJ Mirage deliver a dense, cinematic and uncompromising Raw Underground Hip-Hop album built for true rap purists. Across 13 tracks, DARIUS blends dusty textures, grimy drum work, haunting melodies and heavyweight lyricism, creating a project deeply rooted in the spirit of classic East Coast rap while pushing toward a darker, modern underground aesthetic.  The album brings together a powerful cast of international MCs, including AZ , Eto , Flee Lord , Daniel Son , XP The Marxman , Jamal Gasol , Yah Sin and more — each bringing raw bars, street poetry and unapologetic authenticity to the project.

Just eight months after the release of his debut album "Background Check" ,   DJ Mirage is already back with a brand new project. This time, he joins forces with producer Loui$ Menace for a raw, gritty and brutally uncompromising underground rap album. The first taste of the project arrives with the new single "Bass Out The Fortress" featuring an all-star lineup of Eto , Flee Lord and AZ . The track is now available on all streaming platforms and sets the tone for the upcoming album "Darius" , that promises to be one of the hardest underground releases of the year.
