Charles X is the very definition of the cool Californian rapper with maddening charisma: at only 25 years old, he redefines the contours of hip hop, soul and jazz by embodying a fascinating musical odyssey. As enamored of Stevie Wonder as of Mos Def, it is by absorbing all these influences that he participates today in the future of American sound.
His debut single, "My Cool," became an underground hip hop favorite in 2012. Born in Los Angeles, his career took off after he moved to Albuquerque and met up with Deejay Xman, Untitled Projects and AEG. Releasing his new projects "Demon Talk", "Stay U.P" and "Smokers Only Club," all in 2012, has started to give him a good deal of buzz from LA to Japan.
Teamed up with Indie label, Tentacule Records and publishing from Alter-K, X is ready to make his footprints in the world. Known for his showman skills and soulful, old school style, X captivates his crowd and always leaves them wanting more. Influenced by Motown, Nas or The Roots, Charles X’s music blends hip hop, jazz, soul, and rock, cleverly appropriating genres with continuous creativity. Crooner and songwriter, Charles X alternates sharp phrasing and luminous melodic arrangements, creating a music that is concise and effective.
