Thesaurus Rex is the manifestation of all the ill sh*** I've conjured until now, lyrically. The Boom Baptist is his alterego, baptizing heads in banging beats that make heads nod. Through a long process of learning the art of rhyme and rythym, we created a superpower that could be challenged by none. In affiliation with several groups such as the Typikal Human Animals and the Archivists, we underwent a slow and steady evolution, learning from our peers as well as our influences, and now bring you this unique sound. Please feel free to comment on the music. Peace. Thesaurus Rex and The Boom Baptist
