MC Homeless
RIYL: Moodie Black, Ceschi, AWOL One, Sole, Sage Francis, P.O.S. & Astronautilus
MC Homeless grew up attending punk and hardcore shows in Youngstown, Ohio. After listening to rap all his childhood, he decided to pick up the microphone in 11th grade. Homeless would hone his skills at Kent State University, sharing the stage with acts such as The Coup, MC Chris, Ceschi Ramos, Astronautalis, and many more. The handmade Pink Unicorns EP was released around this time which earned him a review in Cleveland Scene magazine.
Homeless toured across the Midwest and Northeast, eventually linking up with DIY Bandits who would release his first full length album Trapped Under An Ohio Sky. DIY Bandits previously only released folk punk such as Johnny Hobo aka Pat The Bunny and Ghost Mice but Trapped was a sleeper hit for Homeless and ended up getting a rave review in Alternative Press magazine. This led to relentless touring and a split 12 inch with Indonesia’s Homicide.
After many tours of America, Europe, and beyond, Homeless disappeared from hip hop for six years. He suddenly reemerged in 2017 and released Sex & Death on Fake Four Inc which is also home to to Ceschi, Moodie Black, Sadistik, among others. His sound had matured and changed from a more traditional underground hip hop style into a dark industrial hip hop sound. Homeless is now working on multiple projects which combine his love for industrial, hip hop, and punk rock.
