Yung Byron’s Revenge isn’t some rushed collaboration or a one off experiment. It feels like the result of two creatives who’ve been circling the same ideas for years and finally decided to build something together the right way. The project brings together Salt Lake City rapper and visual artist Dusk Raps and producer, rapper, and entrepreneur Planta Beats, with a full album expected to arrive in early 2026.
Dusk Raps is one of Salt Lake City’s active artists, even if he’s never been loud about it. His catalog moves through gritty hip hop, melodic pockets, and experimental moments, but there’s always a recognizable tone to his work. It feels lived in, and personal.
That same mindset extends beyond music. Dusk has spent years throwing shows, designing flyers and album artwork, painting murals, curating art spaces, and helping shape the creative ecosystem around him. He’s not just releasing music, he’s contributing to a scene.
Planta Beats brings a different but equally grounded energy
Originally from California and now based in Utah, his production leans raw and underground, built on dusty samples and analog textures that feel closer to basement sessions than studio polish. He’s been making music since 2010, first as a co founder of his group The Outsiders before branching into a wide range of solo projects. Those releases bounced between full rap albums and producer driven compilations featuring other artists over his beats.
Outside of music, Planta stays busy as a barber shop owner, soccer player, graffiti enthusiast, and father of two. That balance shows in his work. There’s discipline, grit, and patience baked into the sound.
Their debut single “Sirens” sets the tone for what Yung Byron’s Revenge is about. The track doesn’t try to grab attention with shock value or trends. Instead, it pulls you in slowly. Planta Beats lays down eerie, atmospheric production that feels cold and spacious, giving the track room to breathe. The beat carries a sense of tension, like something is always just about to happen but never fully explodes.
Dusk Raps floats through that space with a stream of consciousness delivery that feels natural rather than forced. His writing doesn’t chase punchlines or hooks. It feels like thoughts being processed in real time. There’s weight in the way he says things, even when he’s not spelling everything out. That subtlety is part of what makes “Sirens” stick. It rewards listeners who actually sit with it instead of skipping ahead.
The track was recorded and engineered alongside Utah hip-hop staple Chance Clift, and the result sounds clean without losing its edge. Nothing feels overproduced. The vocals sit where they should, the beat stays moody, and the atmosphere remains intact. It feels like a song meant to be played late at night, not blasted for attention.
What really separates “Sirens” from a typical debut single is the larger creative world surrounding it. The duo has already been active through art shows, pop ups, beat showcases, and collaborative events that blur the line between music and visual art.
“Sirens” acts as a centerpiece for that world, paired with commissioned artwork from artists like Uno Pelavacas, Just Zero, and Dusk himself. The visuals don’t feel like marketing tools. They feel like extensions of the music.
There’s a strong sense that this project is being built with longevity in mind. Nothing about Yung Byron’s Revenge feels rushed or packaged for quick consumption. It’s rooted in community, craft, and a shared creative vision. “Sirens” doesn’t over explain itself, and it doesn’t need to. It simply opens the door and lets listeners decide whether they want to step inside.
With a full album planned for early 2026, Yung Byron’s Revenge is laying a solid foundation. “Sirens” is a quiet warning shot, not a loud announcement, and that’s exactly why it works. This is the kind of project that grows over time, through word of mouth and real support, not algorithms.
