Extra Info

Arablak is an American hip-hop artist with virtually no commercial exposure and success, but has established a firm fan base/following amongst his peers in his home state of Massachusetts. A member and affiliate of various rap crews like Brass Knuckle Mentality, Cold World Industries, The Rezistance, Fort Mars, (to name a few); Arablak has the experience and artistic savvy of a seasoned vet.

Beginning his recording efforts as an emcee in the mid 90’s, and production since around 2001 (respectively) he has become a force to be reckoned with in both fields.

Progressive and retrospective, his rhymes and beats are geared to be enjoyed by fans of the eclectic as well as the true school hip-hop purists.
