The producer has already travelled across the globe, taking in much of Europe with sets in Paris, Istanbul, Amsterdam, and London’s iconic XOYO club, before rounding off the tour in his native United States – with performances in Boston and San Luis as April draws to a close. Packed with the high energy in-your-face-bass we’ve come to expect from the Guatemalan-American DJ, Battered Bruised & Bloody features recent singles ‘ Learn How To Watch’ featuring Mac Miller & MadeinTYO, ‘ i Shyne’ with Lil Pump, and ‘PLUR Genocide’ with Grammy-nominated international DJ and producer Steve Aoki featuring Lockdown. Battered, Bruised, & Bloody is a largely forgettable collection of generic trending beats, repetitive songwriting, and weak features.Fresh off the back of completing a successful run of European tour dates, International DJ and producer Carnage has unveiled his brand new album, Battered Bruised & Bloody a 13-track production featuring the collaborative talents of Migos, Lil Pump, and many more. There really wasn’t any feature that was impressive, but Lil B probably stood out the most as he brought the most originality to the table which is only fitting see as he’s the reason for a lot of these ‘SoundCloud rappers’ even existing. You’ll still find some of those EDM/trap influences that he’s most well known for, but for the most part the production is simplified down to the bare minimum to accommodate his guests. And keeping with this push towards this newer wave, his production is very much in favor of what’s trending now.

But while you will find some bigger, more established names on Battered, Bruised, & Bloody, it’s largely left to this new generation of ‘SoundCloud rappers.’ In fact, I hardly recognized any of the names he had as features. Carnage is back with his second official album and although he may not be the biggest or most well known producer out there, he has always had an impressive network of “industry friends” he could call on to feature on his songs.
