Carnage45 hails from the Eastern Shore with a sound vastly reminiscent of the Golden Era of Hip Hop.

With an evident admiration of perseverance and triumph, Carnage released a track titled “The Answer” from his second LP The Elevation. The song is ode to one of his biggest inspirations, basketball great Allen Iverson, and encapsulates rhymes and quotations inspired by Iverson himself during his run with the Philadelphia 76ers.

“A kid named Allen fought his way through the struggles/in a city where people were known to rob and hustle/at a young age he got in a wild struggle/everyone but John Thompson looked at him as trouble” starts the record with a passion that echoes a sense of familiarity from the Virginia native. With a nostalgic flow and 90’s styled production, Carnage brings back the sound of Hip Hop from the glorious days of Hip Hop, a sound that is absent from mainstream radio today.

Through his rhymes and reasons, Carnage hopes to become an inspiration and connect to to his audiences to help overcome any adversity. He is currently working on his third solo album Elite Breed due later this year led by the single “Pawn To A King”.
