A devout Nichiren Buddhist, HUNTER BDM blends elements of soul, house, hip-hop, and experimental production into the distinctive sound of Bodhisattva Dance Music. For his Recomposing America project, ACF has commissioned a new album titled Heart of a Lion King 3 that fuses hip-hop, punk, and soul. The collaboration between HUNTER BDM, two producers, and middle school students explores the mystic law of Nichiren Buddhism in a project centered around vulnerability, humanity, and peace.
