Qashus is a rapper and songwriter starting his musical journey in 2009, immediately finding a deep inspiration to create music. For him, he recognized the deep meaning beyond the rhythms and rhymes of rap. He takes influence from the talents of hiphop legends such as Gangstarr, Dj Premier, Nas, Tupac, Dr Dre, 50 Cent, and artists of today’s generation J Cole, Logic and Russ.
He developed a connection with the old school boom bap rap vibe of their music and felt the messages of these rappers beyond their music. He works to emulate their anecdotal approaches to his music as he’s seen done before by the greats. His resilient Afghan Canadian identity is what motivates the more personal messages of his rap and defines who he is as an individual and as an artist.
