Memphis rapper Chris Travis performs live at Emo's Austin, blending hip-hop, trap, and phonk influences.
Chris Travis plays Emo's Austin on Thursday, July 30. He's a Memphis rapper who first made a name for himself on SoundCloud, with the track "Crunch Time" and the mixtape Codeine & Pizza among the early releases that put him on the map. He's known for a flow that sits somewhere between aggressive and calm, and he's a founder of the Water Boyz collective. Before that, he was a member of Raider Klan and SHWB.
His sound pulls from a wide range of hip-hop styles. It touches on trap, emo rap, underground hip hop, and Memphis hip hop, and it reaches into dark trap, phonk, cloud rap, and vapor trap. If you've followed the underground scene over the last few years, those names probably sound familiar—they're the different corners of the internet-driven rap that Travis has worked within since his early days.
