Tape Swap Radio

Lehigh Valley-based hip-hop group, The Xenomorph, join us for a Shards Session recorded in November 2019. The two members of the group are Bethlehem rapper NyteXing and Allentown artist and producer Johnny Five. And if all of those names didn’t clue you in, you can expect lots of references from comics, movies, cartoons, and gaming in their music, especially from NyteXing who says he’s a “gamer not a gangster.” It’s important that we mention that since we recorded this session, NyteXing changed the name he makes music under to GR3YS0N, so make sure you follow his new moniker.
For this session, the duo perform a song together and both members perform their own solo material. It’s three sessions in one on this edition of Tape Swap Radio!
