On today’s show, we’re tapping in with BeOND of the incredible California-based rap group Acid Reign. The crew is made up of BeOND, Olmeca, and the late, legendary Gajah. Known for pushing boundaries and bending genres, Acid Reign carved out their own lane with experimental soundscapes and a fearless approach to storytelling. BeOND’s unique delivery—fluid, unpredictable, and intellectually sharp—helped push and evolve hip-hop beyond traditional structures, challenging how verses could sound and feel. The chemistry between the three was undeniable, a rare balance of energy, philosophy, and raw expression that elevated each record. Together, they created music that felt ahead of its time while staying rooted in the culture. From the underground circuits of L.A. to global hip hop circles, their impact continues to ripple outward, leaving a lasting mark on the art form. Today we talk about their latest self titled release. IG @itsbeond @forecastedpodcast @memphreigns
