“If my music can help someone relate to this crazy-ass world, then my job is done.”
MATLOCK
USA, HONOLULU, HAWAII
I started off with a group called Comfortable Creeps and we merged with a group called Kastlevania so we changed our name to Kastle Creeps where we did most of our shows and got most known.
This was 2005-2012. We dropped an album self titled Kastle Creeps in 2009. I make beats and I rhyme. As of lately it’s been more rhyming than anything. I took a long break from lyrics but started writing and recording again in 2019-present.
My style is really just based on life and whatever it is I’m going thru and feel like I need to get off my chest.
I’m not a heavy concept type of writer more just a stream of consciousness type of writer. I’m influenced by by people I work with and def some big name artists that put out good music.

- MATLOCK
Matlock doesn’t make noise, he makes sense. In a scene addicted to surface-level hype, he’s out here crafting depth. No facade. No gimmick.
Music isn’t his come-up plan, it’s his pressure valve. It’s how he vents the madness of a world that rarely makes sense. It’s how he survives the chaos with sanity intact.
His project Fear and Loathing in Honolulu feels like a postcard from the edge - rugged, unpredictable, full of unfiltered truths. Built off a raw creative process with producer Reno, it captures the energy of two artists passing soul back and forth over beats like letters from the front lines.
If boom bap is the foundation, Matlock is one of the few still building on it with bricks of lived experience and mortar made of self-awareness.
