Marking the third release from the new label Srsg mentality, this single is a remake of Before the dawn, which was originally the title track of a past album.
The song confronts the sudden sense of isolation and lack of belonging one can feel amidst a glittering city, capturing the real alienation that creeps in through the weekend bustle and the endless flow of people.
Reflecting a narrative built on deep self-reflection, the lyrics and smoky melodies have been further refined, weaving seamlessly over a mid-tempo beat.

Artist Profile

  • Warushi

    A rapper and producer born and raised in Shirasagi a small, gritty neighborhood in Sakai, Osaka. He first captured the hearts of true hip hop heads with his 2015 independent debut album, Tha Pell Mell Novel. Since then, through the release of two subsequent albums and numerous high profile collaborations, he has undeniably proven his caliber. Refusing to compromise his artistic integrity, he continuously elevates and redefines his expression as both a lyricist and a beatmaker on his own terms. While maintaining an authentic, skill-driven approach, his sound has matured to seamlessly incorporate the mellow, soulful elements of R&B and Neo-Soul. Whether riding a classic Boom Bap beat or experimenting with modern textures, the core of his artistry remains unshakable. His lyrics paint a vivid picture of the midnight struggles raw, gritty, and fiercely resilient speaking directly to those fighting through social absurdities and the gap between reality and their ideals. He is a truly independent artist, continuing to champion a timeless, universal brand of hip hop for those who refuse to give up in the dark.
