Lyrical Chris: An Artist to Watch in 2025, Ushering in a New Era with “5D Rap”

As we look ahead to 2025, one name destined to make waves in the hip-hop scene is Lyrical Chris. This rising talent, originally from Tifton, Georgia, and now based in Jacksonville, is reshaping the genre with a revolutionary concept he calls “5D Rap.” His debut album, Prewrite, released on September 5, 2024, marks the first installment of this groundbreaking musical movement, positioning Lyrical Chris (who is represented by Miami and London based music agency MN2S) as one of the most exciting and innovative artists to watch in the coming year.

Lyrical Chris’s music is not just a departure from the typical themes of materialism and explicit content found in mainstream rap; it’s a complete reimagining of what the genre can represent. He has set out to craft a sound that’s positive, non-materialistic, and spiritually uplifting messages that transcend age, race, religion, and orientation. This new “5D Rap” genre is designed to motivate, inspire, and educate listeners, putting high-vibrational energy and positivity at the forefront of every track.

Prewrite is not just an album—it’s the beginning of a much larger project he calls Hip-Hop’s Grandchild, a conceptual five-album series. Each release will act like a paragraph in a broader essay about the future of hip-hop, with Prewrite serving as the “prewriting” stage. This 16-track album introduces listeners to his bold vision, with standout tracks like “5D Rap Rules” and “R.I.P. Parental Advisory” setting the tone for what’s to come. Through this ambitious project, he seeks to eliminate the toxic elements often associated with the genre, making space for messages of hope, self-reflection, and inner peace.

Influenced by legends like Nas, Lupe Fiasco, Common, and his older brother, Farinzio, Lyrical Chris pulls from deep lyrical traditions, blending intricate bars with profound, thoughtful messages. His music goes beyond entertainment; it aims to feed the mind, body, and spirit, offering a refreshing alternative for listeners who crave substance alongside style. In a time when hip-hop often faces criticism for its negative influences, his 5D Rap is a welcome shift toward something more conscious and impactful.

Despite being relatively new to the scene, he has already garnered impressive recognition. He’s landed placements on the Billboard charts, reached the top 20 of the iTunes hip-hop chart, and secured regular rotation in over 4,000 gyms across the U.S. With five singles released under his own imprint, iSoulated, and a feature on Amada Records’ Hip Hop Chronicles, Lyrical Chris is steadily building a reputation as an artist who’s here to stay.

One of the most impressive aspects of Prewrite is that he not only wrote every lyric but also mixed every track himself. He approached the recording process like an editorial, meticulously refining each song until it aligned with his broader vision. The result is an album that offers a diverse range of vibes, yet remains unified by the core principles of 5D Rap: positivity, authenticity, and artistic integrity.

With Prewrite, Lyrical Chris signals the dawn of a new era in hip-hop—one that maintains the genre’s lyrical complexity while promoting messages of hope and healing. As 2025 approaches, it’s clear that Chris’s 5D Rap will continue to gain traction, making him a must-watch artist for the future of hip-hop.
