10 Questions with...Celsius

It's back, my 10 Questions with series featuring up and comers from all aspects.  I had Brooklyn rapper/producer Celsius on my show about a year ago so I had to check back in with him to see what's new...

1. State your name gangster.

Whuz good y'all the names Celsius,I'm that fire that y'all been looking for and that cold reality thatmost are too scared to give y'all

2. What have you been working on since we last spoke? Newdevelopments, business ventures etc.

Really i just been doing a lot ofrecording and i recently finished my album "Diary Of An Arthur" whichcomes out 4th quarter of this yr

3. Tell me about your label FatboyHits.  Any new developments within the label?

Well the new developmentis that I'm not VP anymore nor am I an artist signed to them.  I'mcompletely independent now. I didn't leave on bad terms but I felt itwas time for me to focus on me.

4. Who are your musical influences? 

I listen to all types of music which is mainly the reason why my album has a slight alternative rock feel to it.

5.What separates your music from everyone else in the industry? 

I make truth music and that's no disrespect toanyone else but my music is really all about myexperiences,feelings,and the way i choose to live my life. For examplei have a song on the album called "matrimony" which speaks about mebeing married to music while i have another song called "I Wonder"which touches on the question of will i ever find a relationship that'sequal to the relationship i have with music. So you see the diary isreally giving fans a chance to get to know who i am which is why inamed it "Diary Of An Arthur"  Other than the reason the title soundsgood lol Arthur is my real name.

6. What are some of your side hustles and if you had togive up rapping which one of these side hustles would you fall back on?

I definitely write so if there's any upcoming artist that needs a hitlet me know. Also i throw showcases in different cities for up andcoming hip hop artist. The name of the showcase is called the MicFest. Artist can reach me here celsiusbk911@gmail.comfor more info on that. As for a fall back plan outside of rap idefinitely don't have one,its either rap or nothing. I feel fall backplans force you to fall back meaning if your first choice is to becomea Doctor and your 2nd choice is to become a nurse than more than likelyyou,ll end up being a nurse lol.

7. Tell me about your other musical ventures. What are some of theprojects people can expect from you in the future? 

Right now my main focus is my album "DiaryOf An Arthur". I got a few artist on there that I respect and deal withlike; Bryce(former fatboy artist), Tah Jiggz, a new singer namedAmanda,another new singer named Carley, my right hand (and TriForcemember) Blacks, Pino Grigio,and a friend of mine named Mic L who isanother dope rapper. Plus the entire project is produced by Zukhits soits definitely gonna be an album to remember.

8. With the state of music being at an all time low in terms ofrecord sales how do you plan to stay afloat during this period?

I feelthe bad sales just means that us as artist are just gonna have to workharder on creating dope music and pushing dope music because the fansare still out there so i just gotta answer the calling and give themwhat they want. i wanna introduce fans to the future of music and showpeople that you can make good music without the guns and the drugs lol.

9. Being an independent artist name one thing that you would say isessential to any budding artist.  

Most importantly haveheart and dedication. You have to be a part of that 300 in a waragainst millions because without that dedication theres no pro tools ormanager that could save you.

10.  What's in the future for you as an artist?

The future is definely  in the "Diary" and establishing Celsius as abrand. I feel my future is bright especially knowing that I got you andThe B Side Show on my side. Company wise be on the look out for The"Triforce" (Celsius,Zukhits,Blacks) We gonna bring a new dynamic tothis whole music movement.

Where can people find more info about you?

Thepeople can get at me through any of my sites. Plus I actually respondback lol .
