Rex Arcum is a fully independant Rap Rock artist from Cork, Ireland. Thriving on creating bold, genre defiant music with the sole purpose of converting negativity and mental struggles into something positive for both himself and his listeners. With the release of his debut album Origins in 2022, Rex Arcum started to turn heads and bring together fans of rap/hip-hop and rock/metal throughout Ireland, the U.K. and beyond. Rex Arcum's music fits perfectly in the libraries of fans of acts like Linkin Park, Grandson and Zero 9:36.

At the core of his sound, Rex Arcum pulls inspiration from modern rock/metal acts like Biffy Clyro and Bring Me The Horizon and blends in a style of hip-hop typically heard from artists like Logic and Tyler, The Creator. This eclectic combination of influences, along with Rex's sheer passion for creating bold and captivating records delivers a truly unique blend of Rap Rock that's full of unbridled emotion.
