I'll admit it. I couldn't quite take Sadistik seriously at first. With a name that sounds like a bad Linkin Park knockoff, and an album cover like something out of mid-20002s Evanescence, I was skeptical. But once I moved past my skepticism and actually listened to his album Flowers for My Father I was impressed with Sadistik's emotive style of rapping. Sadistik is an alternative rapper in the vein of rappers like Atmosphere, Grieves and Cage, a unique tradition in many ways apart from the rest of hip [...]

Back in 2008, Seattle rapper Sadistik released his powerful debut album, The Balancing Act .

Sadistik - Flowers For My Father Fake Four Inc.: 2013 Remember when rappers were poets? When there was incredible substance and reflection in rap lyrics? When you weren't allowed to "rhyme" the same word three times (Juicy J rhymes "people" three times in a row on :Who Da Neighbors")? When albums were released in tangible form and you held a little booklet of lyrics to examine? Rap doesn't seem to be like that much anymore. The rappers most non-fans are familiar with are the ones who are on TV, all over the internet, on the [...]

Seattle rapper Sadistik will release his latest opus, Flowers for My Father , on Feb. 19. As you might have gained from its title, the album is heavily inspired by the loss his father, who passed away prior to 20082s The Balancing Act . Since then, Sadistik has been writing and recording his follow-up with the likes of Kno and Blue Sky Black Death , the latter of whom produced the moody "City In Amber". We're proud to premiere the track's fittingly stark and beautifully shot video, which helps drive home the lyrics of both the [...]
