Katastrophe (AKA Rocco Kayiatos) is a mogul in the making. This future hip-hop king makes his own beats and raps (waxes) poetic about a number of topics. His first album, 2004’s Let’s Fuck, Then Talk About My Problems dealt largely with his transition, and the good and bad surrounding all that. His subsequent releases, 2007’s Fault, Lies, and Faultlines and last year’sThe Worst Amazing manage to break away from that theme, managing to talk about disadvantage in education, economic opportunity, queer culture and community. His beats mix the more traditional aspects of hip-hop with dance-pop, electronica and rock inspired tracks. He mixes things up in a way that few in his genre do, and it’s quite refreshing to listen to.

He is also, along with photographer Amos Mac, a founder of Original Plumbing magazine, the first dedicated to FTM culture and life. I’m telling you, mogul in the making.
