The Ravens Chant turns Edgar Allan Poe’s The Raven into dark gothic rap about grief, insomnia, and the echo of a single word that will not let you heal. Cinematic piano, thunder, and choirs score a sleepless descent as the mind circles loss and the bird’s Nevermore becomes a voice inside your own head.
About
Epic Cipher Records
Modern stories, classic roots, classroom‑ready hip‑hop and beyond
Epic Cipher Records is an independent label founded by The Epic Cipher, a hip‑hop artist and curriculum creator turning classic poems into cinematic, clean‑lyric rap. The label’s flagship project is Dust to Crown, a trilogy of poetry‑to‑hip‑hop albums designed for both everyday listeners and classrooms that want to bring literature into contemporary hip‑hop spaces. Beyond Dust to Crown, Epic Cipher Records also develops non‑classroom releases in classic‑style 70s/80s R&B, soul ballads, and roots‑driven reggae, all built on story, soul, and substance.
