Who Is The Mad Guru?

J Blaze the Mad Guru, to his own detriment at times, is an outside the box thinking machine. His sophomore album Democide attempts to break the mold of what hip hop is, and could be. Blending traditional hip hop beats, with jazz, elements of dubstep and a little bit of rock, the 12 track journey delves into the depressing dystopian world we live in. Lead singles "Flying High" and "Happy Doomsday" featuring friends Keddy Mac and Hunter Beard, helps the album explode into your consciousness. Another feature on the track "Old Money" has the Mad Guru's real life brother Willie Hood make his debut as he carves up the beat with his lyrical genius. "In The Midst of Chaos" is a love song with a twist of, you guessed it, a love that takes place in the end of times. By the end of the album you will be exhausted by the grandiose layering of the tracks. And just like his first album "Three Star MC, Five Star Heart", it's 100% self produced, and all of the beats are made from royalty free samples found around the internet. The Mad Guru hopes you enjoy the ride through his mind.

And now the saga continues with "It's Whatever, Man". Mad Guru's third album is an introspective journey of the year that was 2020, with it's downs, and further downs... It's Whatever, Man is a journal of sorts, documenting the feeling of isolation, suffering, confusion, death that came with a year of a pandemic, quarantine, police brutality and the peak of a crumbling political climate. It's not the easiest listen I'll admit, but this is the Mad Guru's most complete and impactful release to date. Releasing on all platforms March 9th, 2021, be ready for the next level.
