In the heart of the bustling city of New York that's always felt like home, you'll find me, CQ. I'm not just another pop singer and songwriter—I'm a soulful storyteller with an edge, weaving together elements of Dance, Rock, and R&B into what I call "The CQ Experiment." Backstage, I'm rooted in the world of dance & theater, where every performance is a chance to immerse myself in the drama of the moment. From strutting the catwalks of New York and LA Fashion Week to pouring my heart into collaborations with emerging talents, I'm always chasing that next creative high. But when the lights dim and the music starts, it's like I'm shedding a layer of myself, revealing the raw emotions that pulse beneath the surface. Through my lyrics, I bare it all—lust, love, heartbreak, resentment, healing, and empowerment. I invite you to join me on this intimate journey of self-discovery. Together, we'll embrace the highs and lows, celebrate our quirks, and dare to dream bigger than ever before.
"Originally the chorus was crafted as a jingle. People started asking for more, so we figured, why not turn it into a full-fledged song? At the time, I was hustling hard to get my music out there, and those emotions fueled the lyrics.Originally more hip-hop centric, I felt it needed that extra kick, so we tossed in some rock vibes, giving it that unique Hip-Rock edge."
