In a landscape flooded with cookie-cutter artists, Chico stands out like a splash of vibrant color on a gray canvas. Born Alexander Sepulveda, he embodies a unique blend of passion and creativity, determined to reshape the music industry with his fresh perspective. “Nobody talks, walks, looks, or acts like me,” he declares, a bold statement that perfectly encapsulates his mission: to be the game-changer hip-hop desperately needs.
A Legacy of Art
Chico’s journey is deeply rooted in family legacy. His father, an immigrant from Chile, was a musical virtuoso, playing multiple instruments and crafting beautiful songs that never reached mainstream ears. “He was a chef and an artist too,” Chico reminisces. “His dreams didn’t die when he became a father; they just evolved.” Tragically, he passed away on Chico’s eighth birthday, leaving behind a profound inspiration for his son. “I wear my heart on my sleeve, and it shows in my music. I’m here to fulfill my father’s dream and prove our family name is saturated with art.”
Chico began his musical journey at the tender age of 14, fueled by his father’s legacy. Yet, the path wasn’t easy. Despite crafting countless songs and beats, he didn’t step into a professional studio until he was 18. “I’ve recorded multiple tracks since then, but I still haven’t dropped any music until now,” he admits. “I’m learning that it’s okay to feel anxious. The leap will come when the time is right.”
A New Sound in Hip-Hop
What sets Chico apart from the pack is his relentless attention to detail. “I care about how a song sounds, the pronunciation of words, and the flow,” he asserts. “No one sounds like Chico. I can’t hit really high notes yet, but I’m creating songs that fit my range, ensuring every note is pleasing.” He’s committed to mastering his craft, aspiring to hit the high notes of legends like Adam Levine in time.
Yet, it’s not just about the sound for Chico; it’s about the message. “Sometimes you have to stop and listen to my lyrics. They’re complex, layered with cleverness,” he says, hinting at a depth that may go unnoticed by the casual listener. “It’s all about the ‘if you know, you know’ type of bars.”
The Journey of Self-Discovery
As Chico navigates the music scene, he’s also learned valuable lessons about trust and support. “You think you’re surrounded by the right people, but their ideologies can change overnight,” he reflects. “Despite the lack of support, I’ve kept my head up. I’m determined to rise to the top, no matter what.”
With dreams of becoming a household name, Chico envisions a future where he leaves an indelible mark on the music world. “I don’t know how big my name will get, but I’m here to stay. I want to put my mark on the earth like a car making doughnuts,” he laughs, revealing a playful yet fierce ambition.
Wrapping Up
Chico’s music is a reflection of his diverse influences, promising a rich tapestry of sounds and styles. “Whatever songs you love, I’ll probably make them in the future or have already created them,” he assures. His goal is to invite listeners to discover the artistry that lies within his work.
