About this listen
The raw, unfiltered journey of an artist finding his voice stands at the heart of our conversation with Young Peso. What begins as a casual catch-up between old friends quickly evolves into a profound exploration of personal growth, artistic evolution, and the healing power of authentic expression.
Peso takes us through his transformation from Cash Camo—a young rapper making drill music to fit Chicago's popular sound—to Young Peso, an artist who channels genuine emotion into every bar. The turning point? A series of devastating personal losses that forced him to reconsider his approach to both music and life. Rather than numbing his pain, Peso discovered that pouring his grief into lyrics offered a path toward healing and artistic growth.
This transformation didn't happen overnight. During the pandemic lockdown, Peso established a disciplined creative routine, recording daily and honing his craft while the world stood still. "Spending my time in that way instead of being in the crib and getting high and not doing shit brought Young Peso to the forefront," he reflects, highlighting how dedication to his art became a lifeline during difficult times.
What resonates most powerfully throughout our conversation is Peso's unwavering commitment to authenticity in an era dominated by fleeting viral moments. "Being true to yourself is what's going to keep your mental and emotional self good at the end of the day," he asserts, offering wisdom that extends far beyond music into every aspect of life. His perspective challenges listeners to question whether they're following their own path or simply chasing trends.
Looking ahead, Peso shares details about multiple projects in development, including a special dedication album releasing July 23rd in honor of his mother. This deeply personal work promises to showcase the full range of his growth as both an artist and a human navigating life's most challenging experiences.
Tune in to witness not just an interview, but a genuine moment of connection between artists supporting each other's journeys—and perhaps find inspiration for your own path toward authentic self-expression.
