Necro

The Profile

American rapper and producer from Brooklyn, founder of Psycho+Logical-Records, and brother of Ill Bill. Known for an old-school, horror-saturated style he dubs “death rap,” and for collaborations bridging hip hop and metal.

From New York (Big Apple); producer/MC behind Psycho+Logical crew (with Ill Bill, Goretex, Mr. Hyde); albums include I Need Drugs, Gory Days, The Pre-Fix for Death; collaborated with members of Slipknot, Hatebreed, Obituary, Voivod, and Nuclear Assault.

The reviews portray Necro as a NY-rooted architect of death rap: old-school beats, gruesome storytelling, and a hard-edged aesthetic. They highlight his Psycho+Logical circle (Ill Bill, Goretex, Mr. Hyde) and rap–metal alliances on The Pre-Fix for Death. I Need Drugs is cast as brazen and unapologetic; Brutality Part. 1 channels splatter and street nihilism. Overall tone: gritty admiration.
