Music
Three records and a running SoundCloud feed, written under the name Scarlet Beast. Dark rap, prophetic rap, Gnostic symbol and the occasional developer anthem — testimony set to a beat, made by someone who spends the rest of the week building machines.

Releases
Every track title links to the song on Spotify where a direct link exists.
The statement record. Three tracks, no filler — the war cry, the question underneath it, and the revelation it opens onto.
Nine tracks that move between prophecy, mental health, Gnostic symbol and the day job — the record where the engineer and the preacher stop pretending they are different people.
The earlier body of work — fifteen tracks written before the Scarlet Beast name, closer to love songs and confession than to prophecy. The title says where it sits.
SoundCloud
Seventeen tracks at soundcloud.com/scarletbeast909 — twelve of them also on the records above, and five that live only here. The newest material lands on SoundCloud first.
Liner Notes
Not every track has a story attached to it. These do — drawn from the artist’s own release notes and, in one case, from the lyrics themselves.
They Called Me Monster & God Called Me Son · also on SoundCloud
The song the name came from. Its hook — “they call me monster, God called me son” — is where the album takes its title, and the track carries the whole thesis: fifteen years of building, the poker AI, the rejects becoming the elected, scars turned into armour. Its banner line is No Limit · No Mercy · Only Mission.
I walked through the fire, came back with the code / Built a whole kingdom with a dream no one knows / They called me a monster, the beast of old / But God put a mission in my blood and my soul.Scarlet Beast War, verse 1
They Called Me Monster & God Called Me Son · tagged Christian / alternative rock
Described by the artist as an introduction rather than a single — “I didn’t make a song, I opened a gate.” It is aimed squarely at the rejected and the buried: prophecy in 808s, faith with fangs, love walking through hell with blood on its robe. The most-played track on the SoundCloud feed after Yaldabaoth.
Christ Complex: Mission from God · most-played on SoundCloud
Dark trap meeting Gnostic symbolism — named for the demiurge of Gnostic cosmology. The artist calls it “part prophecy, part ritual, part self-sovereignty anthem… taking the names people fear, wearing them like a crown, and transforming black smoke into scarlet and gold.”
Christ Complex: Mission from God
The most personal thing in the catalogue: the strange weight of hypomania, when the energy feels like a gift and the crash feels like judgment. It is about endurance rather than triumph — the idea that when the fire burns out, consistency itself becomes worship, one step at a time. It sits alongside the estate’s peer-support work in spirit if not in form.
Christ Complex: Mission from God
About voices rising across the land — wounded, gifted, strange, awake — and about being one of many carrying fire rather than the only one. The artist frames it as wordcraft and testimony: turning pain into prophecy, darkness into integration, rhythm into revelation. Not to harm, but to heal and ignite.
Christ Complex: Mission from God
Prophetic and apocalyptic — time running out, divine fire, Revelation energy. Its move is to invert the usual reading: the Dragon rises here in a positive light, symbolising power, protection and holy transformation as the track passes through heaven, judgment, collapse and rebirth.
Christ Complex: Mission from God
The outlier, and the most literal song here: a developer anthem for the late-night problem solvers, built around the actual working stack — AI automation, LAMP and Laravel, React and Node, Magento and Shopify Plus, AWS Lambda and SQS, CI/CD, Core Web Vitals. It was written for Sapphire Signal, the consulting arm that has since been absorbed into Scarlet Beast, which makes it a period piece as much as a track.
SoundCloud only · hip-hop & rap
The newest fully-documented track and the only one tagged as straight underground rap. A cold, relentless march through pressure, isolation, sacrifice and exponential growth, rapped from the perspective of the Antichrist — used explicitly as a fictional symbol of inversion and transformation, not a creed. What began as one person moving through the dark becomes a circle of five: five minds, five flames, learning to build together while the wave behind them grows into a tsunami.
Before Christ
Named for the verse that opens the love chapter — “Love is patient, love is kind…” — and the same text the estate returns to in its written work, in Corinthians 13 and What You Have Without Love. On an album titled Before Christ, sitting two tracks from Dignity for Christ, the ordering is doing some of the talking.
The rest — Monster, scarlet woman, Scarlet Altar, Resolve, can I trust you, awe, dont care, slay the shame, Untitled.als and the Before Christ material — are listed above without commentary. They were released without notes, and inventing a reading for them would be worse than leaving the silence.
Follow on either platform — new material lands on SoundCloud first and reaches the records later.
