Listen to Falling Down

Richmond, VA MC BlackLiq is unafraid to stare point-blank into the deepest, most reflective sectors of the abyss while holding his head high and rearranging his reflection into whatever form thefuture demands – he remains true to self while never allowing that allegiance to stunt growth. A long-time independent force, BlackLiq has filled the roles of radio host on WRIR 97.3FM & WDCE 90.1FM, promoter, journalist, author, mentor, teacher in public and private schools as well as juvenile detention facilities and universities, TEDtalk speaker, and more. During the Civil Unrest of 2020 he was interviewed and quoted by Washington Post, NPR, and TIME Magazine, and wrote an editorial forUniversity Of Richmond's The Collegian as well as University of Illinois Press Journal of American Folk Lore (JAF). Respected as an MC throughout the underground and above, he has appeared on indie rap juggernaut Atmosphere’s album, “WORD?” and has released two albums on Strange Famous Records with producer Mopes, “Time Is The Price” and “Choice Is A Chance” as well as “What Will It Take” with producer Ohbliv and “THE LIE” on Man Bites Dog Records. He is also the vocalist of his punk band, Armagideon Time on Anti-Corp Music. His most recent release with producer Dub Sonata, “Much Given,Much Tested” features guests Slug of Atmosphere, Napoleon Da Legend, Nickelus F, Noah-O, and Michael Alan Alien. BlackLiq places all facets on display to tell his story, one rhyme at a time.
