christal clear
Christal Clear is a beat producer, turned hip hop artist, who was introduced to the world of music production vicariously through his brother Azarael, at the age of 14. Raised under a strict Christian household, he would be prohibited from listening to rap and a majority of secular music during his early childhood. His musical roots therefore stems from Classical, Gospel and his brother’s music. During High School, Christal Clear would attend Azarael’s recording sessions at the Millennium Sound Studios in Philadelphia. It would be during this time that he caught the bug and decided that music production would be his life. Focusing on making beats, he would produce tracks on some of the early FPC (Fantom Phriction Clique) albums, as well as Black Rook Tha Genereal’s and Slick Nyce’s solo albums. Christal Clear would eventually take a hiatus from music to attend Savannah College of Art and Design (SCAD) to obtain a BFA in illustration. His return to music began with a search for how he could do more for the Lord. The answer…Salvation Wreckordz. This time around, Christal Clear would dive feet first into the industry not only as a beat producer, but also would develop into an artist, engineer, video editor and the chief operating officer for the label. Since returning, he did the production for “Understand 2019” on Azarael’s Da MuvMint EP, appeared as a producer and artist on volumes 5 and 6 of the label’s Christmas albums, several tracks on the Perserverance EP and has three features on Azarael’s last solo album “Fade to Black / Facing Life”. B.I.B.L.E. will be his 1st solo album endeavor to be released on October 20, 2023. He will continue to solidify his position in the industry for years to come.
