The dynamic duo recently unveiled their second collaborative album, “AND WHAT: The Christmas Special, Vol. 1,” on Christmas Day, solidifying their status as formidable forces in the music industry.
ALIENVERT, whose real name is ALIEN or ALIENVERT, uses music as a canvas to express a kaleidoscope of emotions, thoughts, and perspectives.

Drawing inspiration from a wide array of genres including Punk, Hip-Hop, R&B, Reggae, Rock, and Jazz, ALIENVERT‘s musical influences range from Death Grips and The Beatles to Marvin Gaye and Tyler, The Creator. This diversity is evident in their discography, where they fearlessly explore and blend genres, creating a unique sonic experience for their audience.
