Mythodical Joe stands as a reminder of what the culture was built on: honesty, storytelling, and soul. Born Dante Dumas, Mythodical Joe approaches music not as a costume, but as a lifeline. From the start, music has been his most natural creative outlet—a place where he can work through life’s highs and lows, translate emotion into bars, and speak truths that don’t always fit neatly into everyday conversation.
Stylistically, Mythodical Joe proudly wears the label of “old school.” His sound echoes the raw intensity and presence of legends like DMX, Jay-Z, and Shyne, but it’s never imitation—it’s influence filtered through lived experience. His delivery is gritty, reflective, and grounded, driven by substance rather than spectacle. He doesn’t rap about yachts or diamonds he doesn’t own. Instead, he raps from the perspective of an average Joe with an extraordinary pen, making his music resonate deeply with listeners who see themselves in his stories.
That authenticity has already translated into real success. A standout moment in his journey came from collaborating with Jae Millsz on the record “The State,” a sharp reflection on the current landscape of hip hop. Even bigger, his single “Hailstorm” made serious noise, landing at #4 on the Canadian iTunes Top 100, earning him a plaque and proving that real bars still travel across borders.
Behind the scenes, Mythodical Joe thrives on collaboration. He values sit-down conversations, idea sharing, and creative chemistry, having worked closely with DJ Rek and artists at San Diego’s Sound Lounge studio. Several of those sessions shaped tracks from his EP The Collective, reinforcing his belief that teamwork elevates the final product.
Though the industry has tested his patience—especially when it comes to fully reaching his audience—Mythodical Joe remains driven. He’s motivated by self-competition, constantly aiming to outdo his last release while exploring new genres and collaborations.
With his upcoming single “Crying” featuring Zeus Rebel Waters dropping January 9th, the next chapter is already unfolding. Check out their new single “Crying”, and if you appreciate real hip hop rooted in truth, follow them on Instagram @mythodicaljoe.
