Welcome

Darien. is an American rapper, producer, and multi-instrumentalist whose work seamlessly blends the Afro-Caribbean rhythms of his Jamaican heritage and the jazz and blues traditions of Kansas City into his own sonic signature that redefines alternative hip-hop. 

 

Raised in a military family, few things stayed consistent for Darien. (Born Darien Anthony Richards), besides the music on the radio that followed him where he went. Latching onto the unique discographies of Pharrell Williams and Tyler, The Creator from an early age, Darien. is no stranger to the world of Hip-Hop and the hard-hitting rhythms and vibrant culture that define it. 

 

He perfectly melds the acoustic sounds of world percussion and his trusty alto saxophone with the futuristic soundscapes of synthesizers. The resulting sound is a powerful declaration to the world that he’s here to flip everything on its head. Take a seat and watch closely as Darien. begins to “OPEN THE BOX”.
