New Orleans MC/producer Leon the God imbues his music with a wisdom and timelessness that belies his youth. He aggressively delivers spiritually-themed lyrics atop his own psychedelic production, creating a sound that carries on the tradition of conscious, futuristic hip-hop (RIYL OutKast, Shabazz Palaces, Kendrick Lamar).Since 2015, Leon has released two EPs (“Genesis” and “Godhop[e]”), and built up an audience through selective local performances, official showcases at various festivals (SXSW, A3C), and mini-tours of the East and West Coasts. In February 2017, Leon will release his third EP, “Nova,” and plans to tour the Deep South to support it.
