Getting to know music artist SAMBO

SAMBO, also known as Chikki Kush, is originally from the beautiful city of New Orleans, Louisiana. Throughout his childhood life, he faced different measures that would then have him and his family stationed in Baton Rouge, Louisiana for a vast amount of years. Inspired by life in the trenches and experiences from living in two major cities in Louisiana, SAMBO is an artist full of emotion, culture, and passion. In his pre-teen years he practiced the art of poetry where he learned so much about how to orchestrate words and thoughts into one. Mastering the key elements of a poem soon became a science to him which soon motivated SAMBO to take further steps into making real music of his own. This was a challenge to fulfill a big dream when others chose to become involved in sports and/or careers that you needed extreme experience for. SAMBO grew up and became heavily influenced by a variety of down South legends such as The Hot Boys, Soulja Slim, Lil Boosie, UGK, Outkast, Three 6 Mafia + many more. You can describe SAMBO's word play as gritty, grimy, pain-filled, and lyrical. The "grit" sound is one main thing SAMBO brings during his song creation. It is hard to grasp when you first hear someone saying they're making gritty music, but when you listen to SAMBO, you truly understand why he's making a difference in the midst of today's sound. SAMBO's passion for music comes from industry tier artists along with local artists where he resides/ from. He has been creating for 6 years. Many would expect an artist to gravitate away from the drive of being a rapper during the long duration time. Often your peers would expect you to reach the top quickly, but he's in the business for longevity, not for the spark of fame. Although he doesn't have a favorite artist, he says everyone he takes time to tune in with has a solid tune that can stick with him and they create relatable music to his life. He uses music as a way to escape and release emotions. He describes music as therapeutic and a way to connect with a wide audience. To SAMBO, music has become one of the easiest gateways to create genuine relationships with fans and other creators. "I love the music because music is power, it's just a flow of different vibrations and sounds that can create imagery, change feelings, change movements, overall, make a change period. Music has always been changing things whether for the good or bad" SAMBO says. He connects to his network by feeding his fans and followers quality content, interacting with all of them, and promoting other artists in his city to his continuously growing fan base. In the meantime, SAMBO has a series of projects lined up for release while working on various content. SAMBO is also the owner of clothing brand “Nine Lives” that includes Men's and Women's fashion. Giving back to the community is one way SAMBO will better cities no matter what city it may be. Plenty things are going for him and there is so much more greatness to come. SAMBO sees himself doing these same things within the next 5 years, at a more powerful level and consistent rate that can open the doors for others to become entrepreneurs. The world urges us to watch as SAMBO expands all across the globe. It's a great thing to see happening during his young career. He intends for others to learn from his music when they listen to a lyrical story that may be told over the 808's and hi-hats of a fire beat. He specifies he wants others to listen to his music and be able to know what their next move would be or turning nothing into something with the power of the brain. Believing in yourself is the only way to make it to the next level even if others may not. These are some of the life lessons you may apply to your life once you hear a SAMBO track. With hard work and dedication he strives to be one of your top go-to independent artists. Thanks to independent record label LARecordz, SAMBO is one of the missing key factors in the industry and southern region.
