HBK Catastrophe, Steady On The Come Up
Welcome to the world of HBK Catastrophe, a 20-year old recording artist from Atlanta, GA here to takeover the music scene and make waves in the rap community. It's been a common theme these past few years that we see stars being born in the underground and that can be attributed to the recent Covid-19 pandemic. People spent most of their days inside the house in 2020, not spending much time with others or going outside. From a creative's perspective, that time period was your chance to find the time to dive into something you've always wanted to do. For HBK Catastrophe and many others, that thing was music. What started as a fun hobby during the lockdown, eventually turned into something so much more. HBK Catastrophe spent countless hours recording music and learning more about digital audio workstations and how you can improve your sound and make it unique. After recording his third song, it became obvious this was what he wanted to pursue, so he bought a professional microphone and audio interface and got to work. HBK Catastrophe would go on to strengthen his recording and mixing skills in order to really lock in and take music seriously.
Post pandemic, HBK Catastrophe continues to strive for greatness and spends time doing what he loves most: Recording, mixing, mastering, performing... The list goes on. It's a goal of his to create a strong fanbase and progress with the ones who believe in him from this developmental stage in his career.

"I love all of you and wish you the best in life. I try not to hate on anyone cause you never know who they could turn out to be. However, I do have a few non music related hobbies such as skateboarding, but I always come back to the mic when I feel the need to create. The longest I locked myself in the studio for was around 4-5 days straight, one day I'm going to do a week and see what I can come back with." -HBK Catastrophe
