Who says Hip-Hop is not fun no more? Prepare for the ultimate ShowKase. Combining witty and playful lyrics with a cool and smooth delivery, ShowKase is not your typical rapper. It is more to him than meets the eye. One look at ShowKase and you think you have him all figured out. Your wrong! Kase as he is often referred to is about his business. Goal-oriented and focused, Kase is a no-nonsense, straight-laced, straight-forward thinking rapper in an industry loaded with one-hit wonders and novelty artists.
Lamar: How would you describe your style?
Kase: "Unlike nothing you ever heard!"
Lamar: How important is it to separate yourself from other burgeoning emcees?
Kase: "Very important! Especially with the way the industry is right now. You kind wanna come in your own lane."
Lamar: There is an overwhelming amount of rappers entering the game at fast rates. Most of these artists will have a few hits and won't be around in 5 years. What is your game plan? How do you plan to defeat the longevity most new artists are limited?
Kase: "Being consistent is the key. Stay humble. Stay grounded but be consistent."
Lamar: What is the process for you like when you write, go to the studio, and record?
Kase: "Get a beat, decide what the beat is telling me to do. Write, record, get it mixed, and mastered then put it on repeat!"

Kase: "I'm trying to get signed like a cast on my arm and stay in the game as long as possible"
