C. J Green is an Atlanta Rapper who is carving out a place for himself in the industry. He recently released his new single “What’s Up” (featuring Derez Deshon) which is all about being real and spreading positive vibes. The reason why C. J Green stands out from his contemporaries is because his approach towards music is different.
He said that he takes inspiration to make music from his experience or that of his friends. What he lives, he creates into art. He is always creative, transparent and versatile in his music.
Green had a rough childhood where he kept moving from one place to another, shifting from household to household. Despite the problems he faced, he is now succeeding in a career he chose. His music “Talk About Now”, was a hit.
It isn’t about the general sexual innuendos, which most of the songs are about. But it’s about leaving behind masses of women and settling down with a girl he loves. As we mentioned earlier, Green writes stories with his songs, about his experiences or his close ones. He took his inspiration of storytelling from artists like Jay-Z, Nas and 2Pac whom he adores and looks up to.
His new song “What’s Up” is about being there for people who need you. In the modern world people get too involved in themselves that they avoid hearing other people out. This song is a burst of positive energy that remind the listeners that you are never too busy for someone you care about.
C.J. Green himself says that, “ It is about being there for your family even after all the fame and being busy. Really just making sure that at the end of the day they know they can call you if they need you. ” He shared how his life can get crazy and he might not be able to answer the phone every single time. But he makes sure that anyone who reaches out to him always gets a reply. C. J Green mentioned that his songs are about his past and some of them are on his morals.
