— Memphis native Xavier Wulf delivers his highly anticipated mixtape, Blood Shore Season 3, as a follow up to its 2014 predecessor.
Born in Memphis, Tennessee, and deeply steeped in his home city’s musical tradition, Xavier Wulf had a hand in nearly every major underground rap movement in the past decade. Wulf was one of the first rappers to build a following on SoundCloud, helping make the platform the go-to for aspiring rappers and establishing it as a hub of Hip-Hop innovation. Throughout his career, Xavier Wulf has criss-crossed the invisible line between underground and mainstream, racking up hundreds of millions of streams, and playing to sold out crowds across the country. This year, Wulf killed it on his 29-date “The Midnight Club Tour – Dub Edition,” and recently shut it down with a primetime set at Rolling Loud New York. Today, the rising star shows that he’s still in grind mode with the release of a new project.
Sinking his teeth into atmospheric Memphis instrumentals with locked-in triplet flows, Xavier Wulf does not mess around. Sharing a lean, mean 10-pack of hard-hitting heaters, the Hollow Squad chieftain shares Blood Shore Season 3, his new mixtape. Continuing the Blood Shore Season of projects, the third installment deposits new listeners and loyal fans into Xavier’s shadowy underworld of souped-up sports cars and stacks of cash. The underground hero carries himself like a roguish anti-hero comparing himself to Joe Pesci and Captain Jack Sparrow as he slithers through brooding production by Hitkidd, WhoTheHellIsCarlo, and many others.
On track 3, “Charles Ruffingham,” Wulf speeds up his flow and raises his intensity level as he takes gleeful pleasure in the complaints of his haters, while the subdued “Last Moon” shows off his melodic side. The new tape is the sequel to 2014’s acclaimed Blood Shore Season 2, home to “Psycho Pass,” which earned renewed attention on TikTok in the past year and is well on its way to GOLD certification with over 95 million streams on Spotify alone. The prolific rapper’s first full-length project of the year, Blood Shore Season 3 is available everywhere via Hollow Squad / EMPIRE.
Pushing his sound forward with every release, Xavier Wulf is not even close to finished with his artistic journey.
