Anxiety is caused by a lot. In Wrekonize’s mind, through “Anxiety Attacks,” the success of his career thus far with a mixture of the hardships of growing up target his source. He sits in his studio alone reflecting and visits a therapist in the video to his first single. The only thing missing is a [...]

The Rooftops was just a warm-up to what Wrekonize is planning to do on June 4 with the release of his solo debut, The War Within. It’s set to feature DJ Burn One, Jarren Benton, Tech N9ne, Bernz and many more. The first single, “Anxiety Attacks” is a very mellow and soothing track that you [...]

Most labels are not as organized as Strange Music. The independent giant has mapped out album releases up until September, so they decided to drop this neat sampler. It features Tech hosting the whole thing as we get new songs and long snippets off albums from Krizz Kaliko, Wrekonize, ¡MAYDAY!, Rittz, Stevie Stone, Ces Cru, Brotha [...]

An artist’s name sometimes is supposed to give you some insight into the mind of the person creating the music.

“You know….I had to elevate” A year ago, Wrekonize and the band he’s in were preparing their debut album. Along the way, Wrek would have urges to kill beats with plenty of freestyles. This was great as he succeed in what he does. But, the focus was on the group and a solo project wasn’t [...]

The month long set of solo freestyles (and one with Bernz) is over with this last one. Five, a whole EP’s worth, flips over classic (and future classic) instrumentals was enough to A) give y’all a taste of Wrek’s solo wrecking ball-like lyrical abilities and B) promote Thrift Store Halos EP. So, enjoy 32 more [...]

“I been tearing Eardrums since I was a year young” After five weeks, Wrek will be done with his small freestyle series to promote Thrift Store Halos EP. The fans can help select the last instrumental through their site too. For his latest, he takes on Lloyd Banks’ last hit record. It just seems like [...]

“I speak in The Sermon’s Domain” Stepping up to bat for the third week in a row, Wrekonize hits a home run out the park over Ghostface Killah’s 2000 classic. In the process of ripping and rhyming, he took a few extra bars in it to shout out some of the sites showing love. Aw, [...]
