FSD Beats: Cryptonite

Follow Cryptonite (@cryptonitebeatz)

FSD Beats sets out to build awareness of Chicago’s top up-and-coming producers — something we have an abundance of. No need to seek other cities for your sound — we have the cream of the crop right here.

We’ll be offering up new instrumentals from rising producers weekly — free of charge — for you to rock over (and so you’ll stop rapping over “What Happened To That Boy”). If you like what you hear, please reach out to the beatsmiths to inquire about how you can work with them in the future. Got it? Utilization is key.

At only 20-years-old, Cryptonite has already blessed some of the Chi’s finest with his hard-hitting instrumentals. Bo Deal, King Louie, Chief Keef, Ebone Hoodrich and Freddie Gibbs have all enlisted the services of Cryp, who already has two albums under his belt, with the third on the way this summer.

Cryp’s sound has transcended the City of Wind, as he’s also laced the likes of Shawty Lo, Jo Jo Simmons, Alley Boy, and J Money. An impressive resume, indeed. Next up is Cryp’s Jordan Era project, as well as more work with Ebone Hoodrich and DJ 1Hunnit. Check out his website here.  He’s a true talent, so keep an open eye on the young beatsmith.
