Hyde

In his everyday life as an attorney, Chris Greene appears to be just another professional - dressed in a suit and tie, studiously reviewing contracts and documents for clients, and making small talk at networking events. His reserved personality and quiet demeanor make it easy to miss him in a crowd.

Put him in front of a microphone, and Hyde - his self-assured, outgoing, and attention-grabbing alter ego - seems to appear out of nowhere. Hyde has been studying hip-hop for decades, and it shows. His lyrical skill, effortlessly complex flows, and dynamic delivery put him at the forefront of any track he's on, and his catchy, melodic hooks keep listeners coming back to his unique stylings.

Unwilling to be defined by a single subgenre or musical style, Hyde's work covers a wide array of different sounds while always crafting a final product that is uniquely his. With influences ranging from Kanye West to Frank Ocean, Mac Miller to Tobe Nwigwe, and Leon Bridges to the Beatles, Hyde is constantly experimenting with his music, looking for a new way to approach a genre filled with copycats.

One thing is for certain: you have never heard an artist quite like Hyde, and, if you ever get to meet him, chances are you'll never have met anyone quite like him, either.
