BenRodz’s Artist of the Week: De La Cruz
Hello everyone and welcome to the seventh installment in my Artist of the Week series!
This week I chose Crossboy De La Cruz better known as De La Cruz, Cruz is a 22 year old Christian Hip Hop artist hailing out of Massachusetts.
Since making his debut in 2021 with the single “Dirty Rag” , Cruz has proven himself to be consistent, gaining traction by releasing music consistently throughout 2023 and continuing to drop weekly through the beginning of this year, with his recent single being “Passion”
In 2023 Cruz had the opportunity to perform at CHH festival Smoke 23’s artist cypher, as well as getting the opportunity to feature on prominent CHH artist Not Klyde’s album I<3NK on the song “PROVIDE”.
Linking up with fellow CHH artist and friend Tre’Gadd last year, Cruz and Tre dropped two singles, “How You Feel” and “STAR”, they later announced these songs would be on a forthcoming collab album between them.
Cruz has dropped two projects, More Than A Dream The EP and More Than A Dream Deluxe, he also got fellow and prominent CHH artist Ty Brasel on his song “Foreal”.
Cruz works as a teacher and makes music during his spare time, showing no signs of slowing down and just hitting over 600k streams.
With Christ centered lyrics, catchy beats and a unique sound Cruz is an artist you should check out and add to your playlists, be on the lookout for new music from him as he has plenty up his sleeve for 2024.
As always my goal is for you to discover new Christian artists to add to your playlists that you maybe never heard of before or heard if but never really listened to their music.
If you’re rocking with Cruz make sure to drop him a follow here and make sure to check out this playlist featuring songs from the seven artists that have been featured so far!
Thank you to everyone that takes the time to read this, drop the artist a follow and check out the playlist, I truly appreciate it.
And that concludes this week’s segment, if you enjoy this series make sure to let me know, until next time God bless and I hope everyone has an amazing week!
