Rhymesayers Entertainment signs Dem Atlas!
|Rhymesayers Entertainment announced the newest artist to join the Minneapolis based label’s roster, Dem Atlas. Fresh to the Twin Cities music scene, Rhymesayers is excited to share this musical gem with our audience and beyond. While Dem Atlas is looking forward to transmitting his message across the globe with his upcoming Rhymesayers release, please feel free to enjoy his first project, a self-released EP titled Charle Brwn. Commenting on the EP, Dem explains, “I am chronicling the life and times of our beloved, Charlie Brown. I feel like I relate to Charlie Brown because, he is a bit of a sad figure, yet reliant in the ways in which he fails time and time again, but continues to try and try again. I am inspired by cartoons & animation, static on the radio, vinyl scratches, Nirvana & Hip Hop.”
Joshua Evans first began his journey penning poems as a freshman in high school. After four years of being the frontman of his high school band, he made a decision to go solo. Dem Atlas was born. Evans describes Dem Atlas as having two sides, despite only being one person. “It’s sort of like there’s two of us,” Evans says. “Dem is the unenlightened and ignorant side, whereas Atlas is the mythic, holy figure in control; he is all-powerful, all-knowing and all-seeing.”
