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

Hi Rigel, why did you pursue a creative career?
My Father is my greatest influence as an creative artist because I remember when I was 6 years old, I used to watch him recite and listen to several artists such as Tupac , Eminem, and his all time favorite Jay z. My father embodied the creative drive I have today. In addition when 106 & Park aired in the year 2000 I saw a vision of myself in bow watching the “Take Ya Home” music video. The rest became history.

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.
What sets me apart from others is my technical brilliance, uniqueness, and style What I’m most proud of is my ambition to be something more than just an artist , which will be shown later the down the line in my career.
The power of manifestation is how I got myself where I’m at today. Definitely this wasn’t easy at all because so much doubt comes with it, but I overcame by just remembering my purpose and why I need to be here.
I want the world to know I am a Revolutionary, and the shift I can bring to the culture with just frequency alone.

If you had a friend visiting you, what are some of the local spots you’d want to take them around to?
If my best friend came to visit me in my city, which is Inglewood “The city of the champions” the first place I will take them to Randy Donuts, which is an Iconic spot. The next location we will go to will be The Kia Forum where all the hottest events happen and Inglewood high school to catch us a home football game.

The Shoutout series is all about recognizing that our success and where we are in life is at least somewhat thanks to the efforts, support, mentorship, love and encouragement of others. So is there someone that you want to dedicate your shoutout to?
I give recognition to my aunt, who gave me vocal lessons, helped through every talent show there was , and helped me sharpen up my skills when it comes to actually making music.
