Urban
A fusion of hip-hop, rap, jazz, soul and world music
Infusing the best in jazz composition and improvisation with Hip-Hop poetry and soulful grooves, The Beast is North Carolina's own independent revolution. Beautifully rebellious and refreshingly conscious, The Beast creates music to engage/enrage one's mentality and impassion all bodies to get up and move. The Independent Weekly calls The Beast “one of the Triangle’s new bright lights…[because it] subverts a half-dozen stereotypes.” One could think they were listening to Bob Marley, Sweet Honey in the Rock, Max Roach, Gil Scott-Heron, or Public Enemy at any point during a Beast performance.
