In a genre known for its conformity, Zel Monstrous fearlessly breaks free from the mold, delivering a sonic experience that is as unexpected as it is captivating. Hailing out of the Crown Heights neighborhood of Brooklyn, Zel takes you on a mind-bending journey through sonic landscapes you’ve never dared to explore.

 I knew the burgeoning rapper was a generational talent. Now, I don’t use the term “generational talent” loosely. I say that he is because he has an innovative sound that pushes the envelope. His brand of experimental alternative hip-hop is refreshing, and it deserves to be heard. In an industry that rewards virality and artists that beg to be seen, Zel Monstrous focuses on his craft. That is what makes him so polarizing.
