He is often associated with SoundCloud rap artists. In a 2018 article, NME described him as a “tormented outsider hip-hop artist”. They also called him a “rap metal overlord” and his style to include “screamed vocals, claustrophobic trap beats and ear-shredding bursts of distorted guitar”, as well as calling it a fusion of metal and “nihilistic rap”.
