The rapper and producer of hip hop known as Flexx has released his latest EP music album, titled “Munchies & Pizza.” The album is comprised of four original tracks for an approximate total listening time of 15 minutes. The “Munchies & Pizza” EP by Flexx has been released on the WERUN MUSIC records label.
“[I] don’t feel like there is an exact time when I started music,” Flexx writes. “It was something I grew up with. I released my first mixtape in 2009 and the response was good, so I started to realize what I wanted from music.”
.
Flexx (also sometimes billed as Muhammed Faal) was born in Stockholm, Sweden but lives now in Sweden’s fourth-largest city, Uppsala. He grew up in what he considers to have been the golden age of hip hop, when it was more complex and meaningful.
.
“It was Biggie Smalls,” he writes, “ and ‘Pac had the message; Nas painted the picture, and Jay-Z had the essence.”
.
He names as main artistic influences the above rappers, as well as modern artists such as J. Cole and Kendrick Lamar, as well as reggae performers.
.
“Reggae is a big part of my melodic life,” he writes. “I love Berres Hammond, and the dancehall scene is quite interesting, too.”
.
Flexx’s aforementioned debut mixtape, “International Ground Vol.1” was released in 2009. 2010 saw the publication of “International Ground Vol.2,” which showcased popular tracks such as “Keep On Walking,” “Believe,” and “She Say.” Flexx’s second mixtape awarded his an invitation to TV4, Sweden’s largest television channel, on which he performed during prime time. In 2012, he signed with WERUN MUSIC.
.
Speaking of the theme of Flexx’s new EP, WERUN MUSIC writes, “’Munchies & Pizza’ brings the munchies out and shows a part of Flexx’s and many people’s everyday life. It brings out a calm feeling with a mellow trap sound that’s comfortable and quite fresh. In the end, it’s about catching the moment.”
.
“Munchies & Pizza” by Flexx is available online worldwide beginning 5 October, 2013.
