The debut EP from the very talented up and coming producer, RAK, is a great representation of his music style, production quality, and respect he has for the EDM / Dubstep genre. Dubstep music has long captivated listeners with its heavy basslines, intricate rhythms, and intense energy. Within this genre, RAK has emerged as a visionary artist, pushing boundaries and delivering groundbreaking experiences. "Organized Crime," is a testament to his creative prowess, blending elements of dubstep with his unique style.
Each track is carefully crafted, immersing the listener in a world where organized chaos reigns supreme. The first track of the EP, SHUTUP, is an insanely heavy track that showcases RAK as an artist. It introduces listeners to the dark and mysterious atmosphere with pounding basslines that permeates throughout the entire collection. MAFIA, the second track, also showcases RAK's ability to create a cohesive collection of music while also bringing a unique perspective with each track. DIE FOR THIS is a melodic track where chaos and beauty coexist. My personal favorite track off the EP is the last track titled, KILL ME, with Envious. The vocals in this track bring a new layer of intensity to RAK's already intense songs. The track's thunderous basslines and intricate sound design keep the listener on edge, symbolizing the turmoil within a criminal underworld.
This quote from RAK is a testament to how much this music means to him and how grateful he is. RAK is a genuine person makes sure that everyone that has supported him knows he appreciates it. It's great to see this in the EDM scene. I hope all other artists do this in the future. Spread the love!
"A LOT of time & preparation has gone into finalizing my debut EP for Cyclops Recordings so I wanted to pay my respects to everyone involved before it releases tonight... Starting off with Subtronics for the continued support over the years. From putting my tunes in his mixes/sets, to production feedback, & giving my EP a home. Easily one of the NICEST humans I’ve met. Secondly, JVE Media for developing a detailed, accurate, & creative visual representation of what RAK is all about from the cover arts to the 3D graphics. My dude NEVER disappoints. Thirdly, NJoy for being my manager, handling business, and continuing to push for me in the music industry. This guy has known me since the start and it’s just BEAUTIFUL seeing all the homies win 
Last but certainly not least, I appreciate all of YOU! Whether ya choose to engage on my posts, stream my music, or purchase tickets/merch. It ALL helps. Without the support from RAK Mafia, I would NOT be able to continue. SO FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART, THANK YOU GUYS SO FKN MUCH
