We had the good fortune of connecting with Rashaad King and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Rashaad, what led you to pursuing a creative path professionally?
I’ve always had a love for music and film my whole life. I always felt like music expressed feelings I couldn’t put into words at a young age. Once I had that first taste of creating something myself, I knew it was what I wanted to do with my life.

Can you open up a bit about your work and career? We’re big fans and we’d love for our community to learn more about your work.
My story is a story of perseverance. My first verses were written at a time when all I had was a mattress on the floor. My music has grown over time and has been influenced by gospel, R&B, jazz and hip hop. On top of being a songwriter I also dance which is a big part of how I express myself alongside my music. I want the world to know that I’ve busted my butt for everything I’ve accomplished, there’s more to do and I am committed to grinding for my dreams.

Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
I would like to shout out my parents who have always encouraged me, I’d like to thank Jade who’s always had my back and tried her best to look out for me. And I’d like to thank Greg who helped me first start to brand myself and learn my craft. God rest his soul.
