APOCALypze (birth date UNKNOWN), also known as Lypze (pronounced Lips), is an American rapper. In 2015, APOCALypze made his presence known with the signing and working with record producer Reginald L. Dixon and his company THE PRODuction Company.

APOCALypze is a truly mysterious person. Extremely little is known about him and his whereabouts. No one knows his real name, origins, or anything of his history. His stage name originated from the philosophical style of rap and how he will constantly prophetically "revelate" about the future. Lypze has had his name since the beginning but was reinforced and expounded on by Reginald. Lypze rhyming style and technique is varied and is very difficult to state any particular one.

Musical career

Style and influences APOCALypze dynamic but varied style has a foundation that is very similiar to Aaron Dontez Yates (better known by his stage name Tech N9ne - pronounced Tech Nine) earlier work as "apocalyptic" music, which discussed multiple societal issues and future states of the world as well as his rapping prowess. The style has a uniquely eccentric, angry, hardcore rap. Lypze stated that he does not have a single technique or style of rap due to how complex and varied he is. He is an incorporation of so many aspects that for him to be locked into just one would be a grave "injustice". His persona represents "not only women but also men, not only the black but the other races, not only the young but the old, not only the poor but those who are not. It is not about any particular group, but about how the single ecology we all live in is out of balance and his purpose, mission, and essence of being is to bring all back into the balance before it is to late and all become self destructive. To accomplish this he must be whatever is needed album by album, rap by rap, verse by verse, word by word".

APOCALypze says that he is influenced by various rap and hip hop, from the beginning with the Sugar Hill Gang to current time of Tech N9ne. Lypze is also interested in other genres of music, and lists Kenny Rogers, Take 6, Virtue, Commissioned, Ron Garnett Sr., Judas Priest, Duran Duran, Men At Work, Prince, The Doors, Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, Elton John, AC/DC, Metallica, Floetry, Outkast, and Tech N9ne, Kanye West, and Eminem as influences.
