CZARFACE

Artist

CZARFACE is an American hip-hop trio formed in 2013 by underground duo 7L & Esoteric and Wu-Tang Clan member Inspectah Deck. The three and their abilities form the rap-based superhero character, CZARFACE (à la Dr. Octagon).

CZARFACE released its acclaimed debut studio album, CZARFACE, February 19, 2013. The album was followed by Every Hero Needs a Villain in 2015 and A Fistful of Peril in 2016, both of which were also praised by critics.

Twelve years before the release of CZARFACE, the group’s birth was put on wax with “Speaking Real Words”—a track from 7L & Esoteric’s debut album, The Soul Purpose—featuring Inspectah Deck.

CZARFACE is a part of the super-group, CZARFACE & MF DOOM. CZARFACE and MF DOOM collaborated first on CZARFACE’s “Ka-Bang!,” from Every Hero Needs a Villain (2015). They came together again on February 8th, 2018, with “Nautical Depth,” the leading single off of CZARFACE & MF DOOM’s CZARFACE Meets Metal Face (2018).

In 2019, CZARFACE released another collaborative studio album, this time enlisting help from Inspectah Deck’s fellow Wu-Tang Clan member Ghostface Killah, (as CZARFACE & Ghostface Killah).
