Unclassifiable, esoteric and revered by the hip-hop cognoscenti, Divine Styler releases his first album in 14 years, Def Mask – a tour de force of hardcore beats and dystopian science fiction.

Over a decade since his highly-acclaimed Directrix album dropped on Mo Wax, Divine Styler now steps up with his fourth studio album Def Mask, a dystopian/sci-fi concept album executed in the style of Blade Runner.

Mikal Safiyullah (born Mark Richardson, 1968), better known by his stage name Divine Styler, is an alternative hip hop artist from Brooklyn, New York. He first emerged as part of Ice-T's Rhyme Syndicate. His first LP, Word Power, was hailed by critics and fans, but was not a commercial success. His second album, the wildly experimental Spiral Walls Containing Autumns of Light, also failed to sell well

Divine Styler, has had an atypical 25 year career as an MC. Look at his discography and you'll see that even though he has only come out with 4 albums, each of his albums have had the goal of pushing the boundaries of what hip hop can, and should be. His newest album, Def Mask, came out late 2014 a. nkel. Divine Styler's Zaxon from his new album Def Mask. We're running a remix battle on this track, the winning mix will be included on the forthcoming 'Def Mask Remixed' album which will be released on Gamma Proforma.

Divine Styler returned in 1996 with a verse on House of Pain's final album, Truth Crushed to Earth Shall Rise Again, exhibiting a more traditional hip hop style of lyricism similar to his work on Word Power. His fourth and latest studio album, Def Mask, was released in 2014. 1992: Spiral Walls Containing Autumns of Light. 1998: Wordpower 2: Directrix.

Automx...: It is for the headz that are into preserving the art form while simultaneously elevating it --- > right!!DS +++ is into some dark boombastic sample hiphop style again now. A bit oldschool like Mark Stewart or Arabian Prince. But with cool hard grooves and mouth-to-ear licks. Incredibly fine sound production, long intros....
