Freddie Dredd is a boundary-pushing artist on the verge of global ascendancy.
Sonically, “Darko” is the furthest thing from normal, finding the Canadian rapper-producer offering a warped perspective overtop distorted synths.
Freddie may be considered an underground artist by industry standards, but in terms of the digitally astute, he’s right in the mix – boasting over 40M total streams across platforms for 2019’s “Cha Cha” release. Candidly speaking, Freddie Dredd is a madman, but his lo-fi soundscape and passive-aggressive monologues are gaining significant traction.
“Darko” is brief but concise in terms of displaying Freddie’s signature glamour, leaning on edgy lyricism and an explosive rhyme scheme to welcome listeners into his malicious world.
The DoomshopRecords frontman is a musical pariah in his own right.
With a digital sound that redefines the term ‘originality’ as it pertains to the lyrically-inclined, Freddie Dredd is a creative mind with untapped potential. It’s exciting to see what’s forthcoming for the Ontario-based purveyor of sound.
