Hollywood heavyweight Tom Hardy is officially back on the microphone, and he brought a very familiar, villainous voice with him into the recording booth. The A-list action star dropped a full-length joint rap project on Friday alongside underground hip-hop powerhouse Czarface. The 15-track album, titled *Czarface Meets Frankie Pulitzer*, sees Hardy stepping up to the mic under his established musical alias, Frankie Pulitzer.
Who is Frankie Pulitzer Tom Hardy rap alias Hardy has never hidden his love for hip-hop, periodically releasing music under the Frankie Pulitzer handle. On this project, he pairs his rap alter ego with Czarface, the supergroup created by Wu-Tang Clan veteran Inspectah Deck and the acclaimed hip-hop duo 7L & Esoteric. The 15-song LP is stacked with elite boom-bap royalty. The guest list features heavyweights like Busta Rhymes, Wu-Tang icon Method Man, Run the Jewels rapper El-P, and Kendra, making the project a legitimate event for underground rap purists.

Does Tom Hardy use his Bane voice on Czarface album The biggest talking point on the new release is Hardy's distinct vocal delivery. On his tracks, the actor leans into the iconic, muffled cadence he made famous as the Batman villain Bane in the blockbuster superhero universe. By resurrecting that instantly recognizable theatrical accent for his verses, Hardy gives the album a chaotic, cinematic edge. Rather than delivering standard hip-hop flows, he uses his theatrical alter ego to weave through Czarface's trademark hard-hitting production. The surprise drop cements Hardy's place as one of the few Hollywood stars willing to jump fully into the hardcore rap scene. *Czarface Meets Frankie Pulitzer* is out now across streaming platforms.
