Hip-hop artist Caz Kush takes pride in his ability to put out a vast range of music, saying that one track of his will never sound like the next. His newest song, “Piñatas,” is aimed at getting people on the dance floor to enjoy the positive vibe that it oozes.

Caz Kush had a goal of bringing back that “crunk type music,” which he said has become a bit of a lost art. This is a tune where listeners can gravitate towards, and embrace, his fun loving nature.

“I knew that people would really vibe with it,” he said. “It’s one of those tracks that you can play no matter what you’re doing. Whether you’re just chilling, or going to a job, or in the car driving- it’s just a feel good song.”

The creation of the track spawned from when he was hanging with his cousin, just chilling and listening to the beat. Caz Kush knew right from there that it was going down, and he had himself a track.

“I started singing, “Yeah, I gotta. Yeah, I gotta,” he said about the intro of the song. “I started going with it and it just created itself. I knew it was going to be something people would love.”

Caz Kush, 25, has been putting out music since he was only nine, dating back to when he learned the ways from his musically inclined uncle. He showed Caz Kush the ropes and got him into musicians like Lil Wayne, which was the beginning of his musical inspiration.

They would listen to music together, and make their own, “cooking up” tracks constantly. He even made a dis track toward his uncle when he beat him in a push up battle, which is when he began to realize that he had a gift.

“As I grew up and became more mature, I started feeling like I was really connecting with the music,” he said. “Around 14, I felt like it could really go somewhere. I didn’t know where, but I was going to figure it out.”

This is when he started dropping music, saying that it gave him the chance to make his voice heard, and his art appreciated.

“My whole thing is about connecting with people, with my music,” he said. “I want you to learn something whenever you listen to it. I want to help the next person.”

Caz Kush is responsible for everything in creating his music aside from making beats, as he prefers to find one that hits him, and then put his own words to it. He is responsible for writing, mixing and the recording process of his tracks, saying that everything is done in his bedroom, AKA his studio.

“I take the thoughts in my head and put them down in the ways that I know I can express myself the best,” he said. “If I have something going on and nobody to talk to, I know the mic is there to listen. What the mic has heard already, it would cry from. That’s what keeps me doing what I’m doing. I am about peace, spreading love and positivity.”

Caz Kush will hear a beat and then find a melody that fits. Sometimes he’ll write lyrics, and other times he’ll simply freestyle a hook. Often, he’ll know within seconds of what he’ll be doing with a beat, saying that something is always brewing in his head. This can get things flowing quickly.

Caz Kush likes to have his own unique process, and he wants the whole world to hear what he has to offer. He has more than 150 unreleased tracks, along with the seven he has available on music platforms. Caz Kush is constantly making music, and there is plenty on the horizon for the Indiana based rapper.

“This is just the introduction to Caz Kush,” he said. “I hope people go check out more because there are deeper songs with deeper meanings. Piñatas is really just that good vibe, fun track. Don’t sleep on me, because I’m coming.”

Regal Rapstar Creates the Social Vaccine with Single ‘F The Coronavirus’—Get Your Dose on June 1

Latino-American rapper and executive producer Rodrigo Ruiz—better known as Regal Rapstar and Rod Ruiz —is set to release his newest single, “F The Coronavirus,” on June 1, alongside a full EP. Working alongside Regal Records/National Digital, the Pasadena-based artist comes bearing a tune many can relate to. The single will be available everywhere you stream and download music.

Growing up, Regal Rapstar was passionate about rap music. “It was big on the west coast,” shares the artist. “I was into Wu-Tang Clan at the time.” His nickname back then was “Regal.” As a teenager, the rapper saw a lowrider Buick Regal going around and borrowed the name. Later, when he began selling mixtapes with “Regal” on one side and “Rapstar” (the name of the tape) on the other, people would read “Regal Rapstar” aloud, and that is how he became that very name.

The rapper has been making music for over 15 years. “I was at an amateur level—making mixtapes and selling my music with a Walkman. I sold 5000 records, one by one, in performer’s alleys in Los Angeles. There were always places to go, hang out, and sell music. That’s how I got started,” reflects Regal Rapstar of his humble beginnings. As the years went by, the savvy rapper learned from hands-on experience how to create a business from a dream.

Before the pandemic, Regal Rapstar was on the verge of an industry deal. “I was knocking on doors to get a deal when COVID hit,” shares the rapper. When the doors shut and the world grew silent, Regal Rapstar found his voice. “I started writing a rap song—this track—against COVID. I wrote and wrote and wrote. The whole world closed its doors, and there was nothing I could do. I was so mad. Eventually, I came up with this song and a whole EP.”

During this time, Regal Rapstar thought, “why don’t I make a song about the coronavirus and against it?” The result was a cool hip-hop song that’s actually a diss track against—and for—the coronavirus.

Regal Rapstar is more than a rapper—he’s also a producer. “I write my own songs, but when it comes to production, I like to be an executive producer. I shop beats and add my own ear to it. Then I rap over it.”

“I worked on it for a long time, little by little. I had a different beat at first but kept changing stuff. Then I decided on this beat and went back to record. It all happened step by step, not all at once,” shares Regal Rapstar of the writing process behind “F the Coronavirus.”

The single comes out just in time for the one-year anniversary of the official end of the pandemic. The party anthem? “F The Coronavirus” by Regal Rapstar.
