I Read That I Was Dead showcases Detroit vocalist Chris Orrick and producer The Lasso joining forces for a striking hip-hop journey, released on Mello Music Group in 2019. Inspired by surreal news of Orrick reading about his own (cryptozoologist) death, the album dives into dark, abstract soundscapes with incisive lyricism and industrial undertones.
This collaboration stands out for its blend of introspective storytelling and experimental production, painting vivid portraits of folklore, identity, and psychological exploration. With mixing by Drew Vandenberg and mastering by Ben Lau, I Read That I Was Dead is a compelling listen for fans seeking hip-hop that pushes boundaries and invites deep reflection.
