Astronomical, the debut mixtape from Elektra artist Masked Wolf, is now available. The 17-track mixtape opens up the Australian rapper's universe like never before.
Vibes ala 2001: A Space Odyssey echo beneath dreamy verses on the opener and title track as the hook burns bright like a supernova. Nimble rhymes skitter across creaky acoustic guitar strums on "Interstellar," while "Tightrope" balances Masked Wolf's confessions with a high register hook from NICOLOSI. An engine hums on "Thief In The Night" before multiplatinum superstar Kevin Gates locks into a verbal crossfire with Masked Wolf. Astronomical blasts off with an intergalactic vision of hip-hop unlike anything else in the game.
To herald the project's arrival Masked Wolf is showcasing a new track from the mixtape "Pandemonium."
Astronomical also features his breakout smash "Astronaut In The Ocean" and his recent collab with X Ambassadors "Razors Edge."
"Razors Edge" fuses tightly wound rapid fire rhymes from Masked Wolf to an anesthetically catchy chorus courtesy of X Ambassadors frontman Sam Harris. X Ambassadors also cooked up the hypnotic guitar-laden beat underneath this effortless collision of styles.
Speaking on the track Masked Wolf said, "'Razors Edge' has such a unique sound - especially the chorus with the pitched up vocals. As son as I heard it, I told Sam that it was mine and nobody else could have it. From there, the magic happened."
