Hailing from sunny Los Angeles, specifically the renowned Leimert Park area, Cashus King is a breath of fresh air in the underground hip-hop landscape. A long-time affiliate of the legendary Dirty Science crew, alongside Blu, Exile, Aloe Blacc, Fashawn, and more, King has a rich history in the game dating back to critically acclaimed projects like 2011’s Before I Awoke, a poetic, soulful offering that captured fan’s hearts.
Over the years, his style continued to become more and more idiosyncratic, as he showed that he was unafraid to experiment with an array of sounds, ranging from left-field electronica-inspired hip-hop to psychedelically-tinged records. On February 14, King will release with Cashus KingDom, an 8-track record that highlights his thought-provoking, introspective lyrical style, and eclectic sound. Never one to shy away from the personal subject matter.
Cashus KingDom is relatable in content but sonically other words, making for a refreshing listening experience, as he forges his own path over the 8 songs run time. A journey through light and dark, this project is dense and vivid, with the listener unpacking new layers each time they press play.
