10Music/{{Diafrix}} is a hip-hop duo consisting of rappers Momo and Azmarino. They have an eclectic sound which borrows from multiple genres. Although their sound tends to be more smooth, gentle and chilled-out compared to a lot of hip-hop, they can also be brusque and aggressive.

13* AlternativeHipHop - Diafrix borrow from all sorts of genres. From pop-influenced tunes like [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NDevGofxPto "Running It"]], to the reggae-influenced [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_24EpLOQOmM "Concrete Jungle"]] to more Jazz/Funk tunes like [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aQ2BfVLz7i8 "Hold On"]], they're very creative with their influences.
