Kaboose

Kaboose is a hip-hop artist known for his positive and spiritually infused lyrics, which reflect his endurance through a difficult childhood. Born in San Jose, California, Kaboose experienced his parents' divorce and had an abusive stepfather. He found solace in music after being introduced to iconic groups like the Beastie Boys and Run-D.M.C. by his cousin. A heart attack at 17 further influenced him to focus on his spiritual relationship, which is evident in his music. His debut release, "Innersection," was well-received by the Christian rap community in 2004. Kaboose gained more recognition with his underground hit "Going Outta Control" in 2008, featuring Royce da 5'9", and went on to release the ambitious album "Excuse Me" that same year.

Recently, Kaboose has continued to produce new music, with releases such as "Salud," "Hustle," "How I Feel," and "Safe Haven." His music often appeals to both hardcore and alternative crowds without sacrificing his message. Beyond music, he is also a youth mentor, basketball coach, and motivational speaker, showcasing his multifaceted approach to inspiring others.
