Apollo is a Canadian rapper using horrorcore as a way to tell stories that feel more like films than songs. His music blends rap, skits, and atmosphere into a larger narrative following the fictional serial killer Earl Lee Baines, known in his world as the Marlow Creek Killer. Through a mix of rap, skits, and haunting atmospheres, Apollo brings listeners inside Earl’s disturbed mind, creating music that blurs the line between narrative and nightmare.
His debut album In the Meantime (2025) serves as the opening chapter of that story. Across 19 tracks, Apollo puts listeners inside Earl’s head, combining unsettling soundscapes with violent, detailed narratives that blur the line between music and psychological horror.
Rather than chasing trends or styles, Apollo treats each release as another chapter in the ongoing saga. The result is horrorcore that aims to immerse listeners, pulling them deeper into a world that grows darker with every project.
Now, Apollo is preparing to release his second full-length album, Et Cetera (2026). While the debut laid the foundation, Et Cetera pushes the story further, capturing an even darker side of Earl’s world through more ambitious writing, production, and narrative scope. It’s set to be both a continuation and an escalation of the unsettling vision introduced in In the Meantime.
