Denacus, born Dean Lyndon Mibus, dedicates this song to a close friend who went away, integrating it with honesty and sadness that represents his loss. Musically, &#8220;dRIP&#8221; combines hip-hop and alternative rock elements, with rough vocal lines and raw, heavy rock\u00a0instrumentals. Initially, Denacus&#8217; vocal style reveals the hip-hop influence, providing the music a spoken, philosophical character. However, about 1:21, the tone changes as the music rises, providing a strong wall of sound with distorted chords similar of Sepultura&#8217;s heavy approach from the 1990s. These darker elements enhance the song&#8217;s emotional significance, especially the distorted, almost ghostly vocal\u00a0layers that continue with a strong, cathartic violence. What makes &#8220;dRIP&#8221; so interesting is its failure to fit precisely into a single genre, instead living in a gap between heavy rock and hip-hop that seems organic and appropriate for the subject. Denacus&#8217; voice maintains a harsh edge throughout, ignoring clean hip-hop norms in favor of something closer to the rawness of hard rock.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Denacus - dRIP [Music Video] | GawdDamnRecordings |\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/okdzU6U4Gs4?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/GawdDamnRecordings\">http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/GawdDamnRecordings<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/DenacusTheMusic\">https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/DenacusTheMusic<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Denacus&#8217; song &#8220;dRIP&#8221; is a moving\u00a0\u00a0tune that reflects the artist&#8217;s honest feelings following a very&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":25662,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"nf_dc_page":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[13,5],"tags":[1021,4247,741],"class_list":["post-25661","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-hard-music","category-reviews","tag-alternative-metal","tag-denacus","tag-hip-hop"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/25661","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=25661"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/25661\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":25665,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/25661\/revisions\/25665"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/25662"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=25661"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=25661"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=25661"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
