Chanel Chachi

Chachi is a young aspiring artist from the Washington D.C. , one we are very happy to add to our roster of talents that have been featured on the Nefarious Supply. Below we interview him to learn more about who he is the reason behind the music he makes.

Q:

Who is Chachi? Tell us a bit about yourself and why you got into the industry

A:

My name is Chachi. I’m 21 years old from Uptown, Washington D.C., born and raised. Music was one of my first loves till this day you can ask anybody I can’t go anywhere without Music

I’ve been making music for 6 years but only been consistently dropping this past year. I got into the industry because I have an extreme love for this shit Music just takes me to another place.

Mentally I don’t even have the words for it.

Q:

How would you describe your music to somebody who hasn’t heard of you before? How would you convince them to listen and keep listening?

A:

I guess you can say it’s high energy with a lot of hidden bars that you really have to listen to to

catch, but that’s just the stuff that has been released so far.

I have music that sounds nothing like the songs I have already out but I guess they’ll just have to wait and see. I don’t wanna be cliche and say my music is diverse but I make mood music meaning however my mood was at the time will reflect on the direction of the song.

Q:

Where are you representing and why is it so important to you?

We represent lots of DMV artists so tell us why it’s so good to be representing the DMV?

A:

I’m representing Uptown, Washington D.C. and it’s important because this is my stomping ground.

Even though all the fucking genchis are moving in, I still love this shit it’s just what I was born on.

As far as why it’s good to be representing the DMV is cause we got some of the best undiscovered culture and musical talent in the world and it’s just the early stages still but I don’t even think people realize how big this shit could get but its coming.

Q:

Who inspires you to make music? Where do you get inspiration for your sound?

A:

Nobody really inspires me to make music.

I’m more inspired by seeing the affect it has on people and how one song can change the mood or energy in any place. Inspiration for my sound comes from a lot of places.

I grew up listening to pretty much everything I never really discriminated.

Most of My influence comes from the likes of Three 6 Mafia, Dmx, Limp Bizkit, Eddie Vedder, Biggie, Kurt Cobain, Layne Staley, Lil Wayne , Tyler and my Leo Brother Keef.

Q:

Who in the DMV do you listen to and what do you like about their music?

A:

I be tryna listen to everybody in the area when I get the chance, cause we got a lot of hard shit

coming out right now. But mostly I be listening to the gang like Khan, Mahi Montana,Redd, Doc

Drvddy, Nappy Nappa, WiFiGawd, Cbrz, MARTYHEEM, Auto Lola, Lil Xelly, Fat Vaughn,

Flipp, JimmyOg, SAGE, Valentino, Blu, Charlie Monroe and Spaceking I guess by knowing

them I just hear their music different.

Q:

Do you ever collaborate with other artists in the area? Is there anybody you would love to have as a feature or collaborate with?

A:

Yeah mainly the gang tho that’s all I be really tryna work with and I don’t really be geeking to do any features but if someone wants to collab I’m never opposed making something 

Q:

What platform can people reach your content on the most conveniently? What albums and songs do you already have out that people should listen to?

A:

My Music can be found on all Platforms from Spotify, Apple Music. and SoundCloud just search up Chachi  and you’ll find it. I only have 4 singles out at the moment which are Grip, LaChat, Run Up The Racks, and War and I have a mixtape out with My bro Doc Drvddy titled Doc & Chachi: Up in Smoke go listen to all dat cuz I’m about to have a lot of new content coming!

Q:

Is there any one song that you’ve made that stands out from the rest? One that really puts

what you do into perspective?

A:

One song that has really stood out is “La chat” and I have the remix dropping soon with the Legendary La Chat herself.

But I don’t think it puts what I do into perspective.

I think people just like it because the video has girls in it, but it’s just a small part.

Q:

Can you tell us anything about future projects? Anything that people can look forward to coming from you?

Then, me and my producer, Fendiholdthe40 of Chanel Gang, got something coming at the end of the year along with a tape I’ve been working on for the past 3 years titled “TIEN (The End Is Near) Be Ready” !

Q:

Do you have any last thoughts before the end of the interview? Any message you really wantto get out to the people and your fans?

A:

No cliche shit but Follow Your Dreams Real Live You Can Do Anything You Fucking Want.

Fuck what anybody got to say, cuz most likely they don’t wanna see you get ahead or even believe that you can do it. We don’t know how long we got here so let’s just make the best of this shit.

Move with love, peace and the most important respect ~ Chachi Love You All&lt <3
