Roy French just dropped a cosmic bombshell on us with his newest release, Alien Rockstar. The project features twelve tracks produced by an array of beat makers including DJ Earnmoney, V-Kidd, Leon Kinnedi, CT, Cunchi Beats and even Roy himself. French manages to stay drippy on each track while evolving creatively and introducing us to an intergalactic alter ego - the Alien Rockstar.
 
Conceptually, Roy explains that he wants to shed “highlights from the peak of darkness and light.” With a “supernova glo in everything he does,” the Alien Rockstar shines through “the vices and dark that goes bump in the night.” He does that with his usually wavy style, bringing knowledge and energy collected in his time growing up on earth.
 
For those unfamiliar with Roy French, the Chicago rapper dropped his last EP in November capping off a massive 2015 for him. With one listen to tracks like "Ketchup", "Rhinolegs" & "Dripstyle 2", you’ll see that French has continued that momentum to make a big splash again in summer 2016!
