IAA INDUSTRY NEWS: What is your music background?
CASSIUS K: Music has always been a part of my life and background. My grandmother being a minister, always played the piano at church, and was considered a strict choir instructor. My mother on the other hand has a wonderful singing voice and of course my grandmother made her exercise that in church. I mean she could hit any note from any song, and my father has played his trumpet in church since I was in diapers. So the music was always in my background, but I was blinded by my passion for sports.
IAA INDUSTRY NEWS: Why do you want to record and release your own music?
CASSIUS K: Well that’s easy, To make money! I am making these industry moves because I want to set my daughter up for college and set up a plan for my family. My music will help me accomplish these goals. It’s all about longevity and keeping my music relevant. I have been told that I have a lot to offer to the music industry, as far being a song writer and developing influential music. I have been told to create music for myself, because not everyone will like what you have to say, and make sure I back up what I say.
IAA INDUSTRY NEWS: What are your songs about?
CASSIUS K: My tracks come from my emotions. Whatever I am feeling when my juices flow, that is what comes out. My songs can be based on anything from hip-hop, rap, blues, or whatever. This is a tricky question for me because my songs are all about me and my life, which retain my emotions. I have only been rapping for two years so even at 30, I’m still learning to control express these emotions the right way and not over due it, ya feel me?

And not all of my influences are song-based. I admire the business ventures of most of these individuals as well.
IAA INDUSTRY NEWS: How would you describe your music to people?

I engage with others and show a genuine interest in their lives, and their thoughts. I pay careful attention to how I express myself, not only in formal written communications, but also in e-mails, on the phone, and in face-to-face conversations. I am very confident, respectful, and clear in all of my communications. I have learned to be a better listener as well. I give my full attention, maintain eye contact, and try to really understand and absorb what people are saying. An attentive, respectful listener is a rare commodity. I love developing stellar communication habits because they go a long way towards differentiating yourself.
