Xavier Wulf, born Nicholas Krause, came up in Memphis, Tennessee. He started putting out mixtapes in the early 2010s, and his 2012 album 'Son of the Wolf' got some attention in underground circles. Songs like 'Chaos Castle' and 'Psycho Pass' show his style, spare, moody tracks with a Southern hip-hop feel underneath.
His music tends toward the introspective, with production that leans into atmospheric sounds rather than big beats. He's worked with other artists from that scene, like Bones on 'WeatherMan.' The catalog is fairly prolific, with releases like 'The Wulf' in 2013 and 'East Memphis Underground' in 2016.
There's not much grand narrative here, just a steady output of material that found its audience. The sound is consistent, dark, minimal, and rooted in that particular strain of internet-era hip-hop that came out of the South.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
