Since OptiMystic’s successful inception back in 2009 with the release of his debut Album “Revamp”, this independent hip/hop lyrical maestro has been forging together all of his past experiences and knowledge into his latest composition that bridges the gap between urban alternative and commercial hip hop.
OptiMystic has been living and breathing hip-hop since a young age, writing and recording with some of the greats including Sticky Fingaz, Fredro Starr & Sonny Seeza from Onyx, M.O.P, Smif-N-Wessun, as well as the one and only Cappadonna from Wu- Tang. Dropping a double album in back 2016 titled ‘Day of the Guiding Light… Followed by the Shadow’ the Perth based MC has relinquished his title as an Australian independent success with his upcoming collaborative album ‘Salty Waterz’.
OptiMystic has graced the stage with the likes of Arrested Development and has supported superstars Onyx and Snak The Ripper (Stompdown Killaz).
OptiMystic’s performances are jam-packed full of rapidly paced lyrics, an immense amount of energy, enthusiasm and crowd participation, reclaiming the independent flag and sealing his place in today’s much loved and ever challenging music industry.
‘Salty Waterz’ is nuthin but grit & grime, but then spit polished to expose the raw gem inside. An album orchestrated by OptiMystic for those real underground Hip Hop heads. ‘Salty Waterz’ is available now through Fredro Starr of Onyx label Mad Money. ‘Salty Waterz’ features Onyx, M.O.P, Smif N Wessun, Cappadonna, Bizzy Bone, Canibus, Afu-Ra, Mr Cheeks, Chip-fu, Rockness Monsta, U.G ( Cella Dwellas ), Maya Jupiter, N’fa and a heap more!
The first video release of the project is ‘Dreams Alive’ feat. Sickflo, Mic Handz & Tenette Smith, shot in Atlanta, Brooklyn and Perth City. The track opens with a smooth, lustrous and compassionate vocal performance from the talented Tenette Smith allowing the floodgates to open for what is an onslaught of cut throat truths from the talented MC’s Sickflo & Mic Handz.
