Queens & NYC Based Rapper Araaz Gets The
Streets Lit With Inner Reflection

By Kamau Austin

A rap prodigy and product who hails from the three original epicenters of hip hop The Bronx, Brooklyn, and Queens, Araaz, is a complex rapper. He was introduced to his musical passion rap listening to his older sister and a friend when he was twelve years old. Araaz, who today still views her as a role model, was too shy then to join in with his sister and friends.

By 16 the emerging hip hop star was writing on a daily basis and starting "to develop his own style as an artist" recounts Araaz. Today he has certainly overcome his shyness and is becoming a thought provoking hip hop artist who looks to make people think about their life circumstances.  Araaz reflects more like a philosopher than a poet on his outlook on life...

"...My life is a challenge. The way the world is today and not feeding into negativity is a challenge because it is almost everywhere around us. Music is like medicine it is a way to release myself from the ways of the world."
