Not much is known about Alaska besides the simple facts like it was one of the last inducted states, its cold, and it snows. No matter what anyone says it goes down anywhere and due to population the rap scene may not be as rampant in Alaska as other regions but the few who are pro-active seem to make solid music. Minus 20 is one of the first artists releasing a album on Frostbite Records based out of Anchorage. The albums title “It’s Goin Down Up Here” seems like a call out to those who probably say they got rappers in Alaska? As menial as most perceive a good majority of the music coming from Alaska is street based which could be primarily due to the major drug scene which many may not know about firsthand unless you’ve been there. Minus 20 like many other Alaska based artists does not have a signature sound to call his own but jumbles a variety of the better current influences. Some would call it Alaska’s own form of trap music with its own instances of street stories and swagger.
