Beats, bars and rhymes…. core components of a true-hip-hop track; and all these elements and then some are manifested tenfold by Brooklyn, New York emcee MasterRhymez. The immensely talented rapper hailing from the Flatbush section of Brooklyn brings the essence of the hip-hop genre to his tracks with a razor-sharp lyricism that’s a notch above the typical release of today. MasterRhymez’s lyrics are rife with “wow factor” punchlines, metaphors and clever similes that give a jolt to your listening senses as you absorb them.

Overall, it creates a grandiose mystique for the instrumentation and provides a lane for the blazing vocal performances to flourish. DNA starts off the big-time cipher with a bold, self-assured, yet contained flow that grabs your attention leading you into MasterRhymez’s flurry of kinetic, “in-your-face” style bars…

More About MasterRhymez
MasterRhymez was born and raised in Flatbush in Brooklyn, New York. Having grown up in the 90’s, it was only fitting that his love for hip hop grew tremendously. He was surrounded by the culture. He was fascinated by word play and rapping so much, that at the tender age of 9 he decided to write his 1st rap. After a few years of working on his craft, he began to garner respect on the mic. He seemed to be capable of rapping about anything from the normal lady song( U like dat, Brownie Points), to things dealing with suicide awareness (Persevere) to just having pure bars (Aijuswannaroc2, Infrared).
He attended The Institute of Audio Research and received his diploma in Audio Engineering and also Music and Entertainment Law. He obtained the knowledge, and built a team forming Rhymez On Deck Entertainment to be able to be a self sustaining crew. Rhymez can captivate with bars and he’s ready to prove it. The question is, is the game ready for Rhymez.
