| - His eccentric persona, aggresive style of rapping and use of both Lovian English and Bredish language have made him a prominent figurehead of the Lovian hip-hop scene. The founding member of Beautiful Burnout, Kristus has been an influential rapper in terms of musical style and image. He is signed to Warped Records. Gill Kristus is also the main lyricist of Beautiful Burnout. The themes of his lyrics revolve around nihilism, despair, popular culture, hedonism and politics. Despite his image, Kristus rejects the traditional themes of hardcore hip-hop such as women, drugs, money and violence. He claims that gangsta rap is "despicable" and "laughably childish". In a sense, he is a representative of the counterculture hip-hop scene that rejects traditional hip-hop. He is influenced by Tyler, The Creator, MellowHype, MC Ride, Ninja (from Die Antwoord) and Public Enemy. He draws inspiration from his extensive knowledge of English literature, encyclopedic knowledge of music and his fascination for punk rock.
