New York, NY (Top40 Charts) "Hippy Hop" rapper/musician Mod Sun, will embark on a summer-long stint on the 2015 Vans Warped Tour, starting June 19 and running through August 8.
Mod Sun, whose moniker stands for "Movement On Dreams Stand Under None," will be out in support of his long-awaited, self-produced debut LP 'Look Up,' which features guest appearances by Machine Gun Kelly, Jody Highroller, G-Eazy, Blackbear, Travis Barker and Dizzy Wright and also includes his audio book, "Did I Ever Wake Up?."
The prolific rapper, who has released a steady string of EP's, singles and mixtapes since 2009, has also collaborated with artists such as Schoolboy Q, Nipsey Hussle and Ab-Soul.
He's built plenty of momentum over the last year, thanks to videos for tracks like "My Hippy," "Howlin' At The Moon" and "Mushrooms." And now, Mod has delivered to his 'Friend Base' - because he has no fans, only friends - his debut album, 'Look Up,' which was released on his birthday, this past March, through Rostrum Records.
The music has grown, but the underlying message remains.
"No matter the amount of negativity you're presented with, 5 minutes from now could be your best moment."
'Look Up' is available on iTunes and for streaming in full on Spotify.
Praise for 'Look Up':
"A really chill album with good vibes and loads of positivity."- Rap Genius
"Despite hailing from the chilly Twin Cities, the pop phenom's sound is more evocative of warm weather and sea breezes."- DJ Booth
"...a debut full of integrity & highlights just how Mod Sun's potential is exponentially increasing."- Absolutepunk
"Mod Sun is the type of artist that the Alternative/Hip-Hop scene needs. In a world with so much negativity, Mod aims to inspire and make the world a better place....full of gems...he's up against some huge names within the industry, but trying to compare him to anybody else would be pointless. Mod is his own man. There's nobody else in the industry combining alternative and hip-hop so effortlessly like him. That's why Look Up succeeds.'- Sermon's Domain
