YoReL

Quarantine woke up a sleeping giant this year. Yorel first surfaced from Queens NY in 2006 with the album “Redemption”. Before the prevalence of online marketing ever took root, he took his message to the streets and traveled the world selling his album hand to hand. Impacting every major city in the US and Europe, the hustling nomad touched many lives with his story of pain & triumph surrounding the event of losing his uncle Leroy Homer, co-pilot of United 93 on 9/11. yet his fan base would yearn for more music that could never be found… in the comment sections under his music you find fans searching, wondering what happened to the hit rapper most have never heard about, an underground artists who’s hits most had never heard. Most didn’t know what they were buying when they met him, a hustler selling CDs on the streets, Yorel pulled away never planned on releasing another album. His thirsty crowd couldn’t find him, his phantom mystique absent from the publicity of major labels, he became known as “The Exile Child”. Many fans gave up searching, but once COVID-19 pushed the world into quarantine, trapped with his gift in a small RV with nothing but a pen , a pad, a mic, and a calling, he would emerge victorious. After a 14 year hiatus, his long awaited album “When Ink Turns To Blood” was born. In a world of mumble rappers and cheap lyrics, many believe he will be the one to restore the integrity of true hip hop. Keep an eye on him, this ones a bit different from the flock.
