Zodiax I: The Warmonger Way

Indian hip hop artist CassXXV kicks open a bold new chapter with Zodiax I: The Warmonger Way, the first of twelve albums in the ambitious Project Zodiax. Centered on Aries energy—war, aggression, and dominance—the album blends trap beats with orchestral arrangements and opera-style vocals, creating a cinematic, almost theatrical soundscape. Standout track Running Outta Ideas is a cheeky diss aimed at new artists, while another track fuses rapid-fire flows and dramatic scoring, proving CassXXV thrives on unpredictability.

Fully independent, he writes, produces, masters, distributes, and markets his work, aiming to release twelve albums in just 20 months, a scale unmatched in desi hip hop. From beatboxing in 2016 to dropping Sanki Edition with 134 words in 20 seconds, CassXXV has honed a fierce narrative style. Drawing from mythology, philosophy, and raw emotion, he is reshaping what storytelling in hip hop can be, building entire universes instead of just albums.
