CnU Creatives Spotlight Webseries

In a field saturated in talent and passion, the individuals who see not only what is, but what can be, are the ones who thrive and excel beyond the ordinary. Kwaz Fraser’s evolution from rapper to producer to director exemplifies the innate quality all true creatives have to reimagine the paths they walk. In this episode, we explore those roads with him as he shares his story of how his passion for film is paving the way for Priymus to reinvent content streaming while educating its users in the world of crypto.

Music has evolved far beyond jukeboxes and radios. It continues to elevate the quality of film and television but regardless of its application one checkpoint must always be crossed before the finish line and our next guest knows all about it. Alberto De Icaza's humble beginnings as a musician led him to be a true force of nature in the world of Professional Audio Mastering and Mixing. We get to speak to this creative about his big move west, how a well-treated room makes all the difference, and why gear and facility don't always equal success. All this and more on this episode of the Creative Spotlight.

Crazy is a matter of perspective. A guy screaming obscenities' at people in a park has an obvious problem, but give him a mic and guitar, and he can be transformed into an artist. Joe Mike Markz has pushed the envelope of social acceptability with music infused with searing riffs, FAT beats, and hilarious subject matter. This Jersey born mad man speaks to our audience about his early days as a musician, his daring leaping into comedy, and how integrity and perseverance matter above all else.

You can tell when someone is a true artist. Circumstance can derail their ambitions, quench their flame leaving them bitter, and yet, the calling to create pulls them back in eventually.

Despite the huge time difference, we were very lucky to speak to our next guest. Brian Ng has taken his NYC hustler mindset, artistic eye for people, and ever-growing appetite to create and brought it to the land of Vietnam. This creative speaks to us about gear, projects, and how he is taking his background in marketing and combining it with his love of film and photography, or should I say Artography.
