Monotone is a pioneering MC and producer who has quickly risen to prominence with his futuristic, dark, and honest blend of hip-hop. Originally from Chicago's underground scene, he has transitioned to Los Angeles, where he's been instrumental in creating a new sonic landscape that fuses hip-hop with futuristic synth influences. His music, shaped by the pain and life lessons of his journey, is both deeply personal and universally relatable.

His early mastery of lyricism and unorthodox beat-making, combined with his introspective verses and innovative production, earned him a reputation as a compelling voice in the underground scene. His recent releases "Nevada" (2024) and "Pirates" (2024) encapsulate the ever changing landscape of hip-hop while showcasing a sonic journey layered with realism. His debut album, Chaos Theory (2016), established his signature sound—a haunting mix of ethereal synths, pulsating bass lines, and disco-infused rhythms, all underscored by profound lyrical depth.

Monotone's latest release, "Drizzle" (2025), perfectly embodies hip-hop's core message: keeping it real. Since moving to Los Angeles, Monotone has continued to push the boundaries of hip-hop, collaborating across genres and exploring new sonic textures. His relentless innovation and emotional authenticity have solidified his status as a visionary artist, continuously breaking new ground and redefining modern hip-hop.
