Description
Los Angeles based nineteen year old Jeremiah Mark (they/he) released their first full-length endeavor under the moniker Lucy Bedroque, their deadAir Records debut. With no prior singles, the breakneck seventeen track shotgun blast of Digicore and Hardcore Hip Hop, titled “Unmusique” has established them as a bastion of these underground sounds. The release date coincided with their first show on the Jane Remover and Dazegxd tour “TURN UP OR DIE”, along with a full west coast run.
Leading up to this moment, Lucy Bedroque gained a cult following in the shadowy sectors of the online underground, with a break-out debut LP “Sisterhood” as Lostrushi. This is the name that raised them to notoriety alongside peers 9lives, prettifun, and egobreak. The new material continues further down the same path, combining cutthroat rage, with the eclecticism and sensitivities of Stereolab, Radiohead, and Deftones.
While forging their distinct multi-media surrealism, Mark also found a penchant for customized linguistics and contorting the English language. Most notably, the title “Glutmother” (the name fans chose for a hyper-active Subreddit) graces the cover art of the debut and the packaging of “Unmusique. “The role of motherhood here is representative of a superiority to everything around it. But beyond humans, it’s a reference to mother nature and creation.” They explain. As for why it’s juxtaposed with gluttony, that’s because “People want more than anyone can handle, and I’ve responded to it with a perfectionist’s mindset.” They combine into a deep resonance of identity that'd easily evade a new listener.
Artful self-produced digicore songs are weaved into a credits list that resembles a guide to online underground music. SKAI (Ken Carson, Osamason producer), Cranes (xaviersobased, Nettspend) also underpin hooks and multi-octave vocal acrobatics.

At just 19, DMV-born rapper and producer kuru is already a veteran among his contemporaries. Spurred by the online renaissance that accompanied the pandemic, he first turned heads while he was still in high school with tracks like “clueless”, “typo” (4M Streams), and “atmosphere”, soon finding himself at the nexus of an internet-based artistic movement.
Known for his distinct sound that blends elements of electronic music, pop, and DMV trap as well as his production work for artists like Black Kray and Destroy Lonely, he cut his teeth in the underground alongside Jane Remover, xaviersobased, jackzebra, ian, FearDorian, quinn, twikipedia, and Hi-C, who have all served as key collaborators. After signing with longtime affiliate deadAir, 2024 saw the release of his critically-acclaimed debut album re:wired, a conceptual piece that fused the aesthetic characteristics of cloud rap, anime, and designer fashion into one cohesive experience. But while re:wired was “a study in emo-aggro duality”, kuru’s forthcoming sophomore mixtape Stay true forever (out May 23rd) is a fluid, free-flowing project that serves as a sort of yin to his debut’s yang. “I don’t want everyone to have a think piece about me,” he explains. “I just want people to enjoy the music.”
