Chase Alex is a super talented individual making his way from his New York origins, whom I find rather difficult to put in a categorical box. We covered Chase towards the beginning of the summer, under our former identity. Today, his artistry still transcends genres, often rapping over cryptic, electronic influenced beats. Rapper, all the same, he’s one of the more adaptable artists on the scene at the moment.
Chase explores the musical endeavors that the Pop/Electronic genre offers, collaborating with the likes of a few close artists to him like LAN Party & features on a couple songs of artists like IZZIHOT, BIGBODYFIJI, and Bri Miller.
No album or EP on the table yet for us, but Chase has seen some fandom result from a few singles of his, notably “Bad Bitch Blues” which dropped early last year landing him on Lyrical Lemonades spotlight; smashing the summer with that one and fast-paced/ fun "Swiper".
Chase has a little two-day walkthrough this weekend, one show being in Pittsburgh on the 12th & Chicago the 13th (flier on his IG). expect to hear one of his latest, animated Youtube exclusives, “PARANOID” featuring IZZIHOT (@blockheadblockstar.) & @iamcaspr. As for the future Chase is aiming to stray away from his staple sound and get into more acoustic, bass-less resonance.
Next week we can expect the release of single/video, “My Darling”, from the tandem of Chase and talented videographer, @masonburch. For the time being, Mr. Alex is just sharpening his tools, with no real project in the foresights, but a boatload of music he’s hoping to produce for us in closing this year out and advancing to the next.
Go stream “PARANOID” on YouTube!
