Overview
90% of my music I rap and sing hooks, so my music can reach a various amount of audiences. I have enough records to fill up a setlist ranging from a summertime beach vibe, to RnB/Hip Hop, modern day Hip Hop, and Soul sampled records mixed with modern Hip Hop giving off night time Jazz, chill, & LoFi vibes. My catalog doesn't represent one sound, it's a collective mix of all my inspirations, making that in itself my sound.

Chris was a pleasure to work with and went above and beyond to make sure our event went smoothly. I can't express into words how much our residents loved his performance. We had many requests for him to come back as well as multiple song requests! Highly recommend!

June 11, 2022Outstanding Custom Song/Rap Written and Performed
CM Young was responsible for making our private party an amazing success. We worked together over several months and developed a custom Song/Rap as a birthday tribute to my wife, the guest of honor.
Accompanied by a strong DJ and sound track, which he arranged, CM was creative with respect to utilizing the raw material, creating a very well constructed Song/Rap and performing it with ease to perfection. The audience loved it!
In addition, post party, I received a studio quality recording of the music as a permanent keepsake.
CM delivered an outstanding performance, exhibited attention to detail, demonstrated great creative energy and was a solid communicator over the course of our project. 100+ Percent Satisfied!

What to expect
As a rapper/Rnb Artist, I'm mostly turning up a younger ranged 15-30 year old crowd. Yet I've skilled to switch my performance style for each occasion. For example, I've performed at a High School graduation's pool party in July. I've also performed at the high-class Boston Park Plaza Hotel for a 70 year olds birthday. Both shows were just as hyped up as each others. In my videos you'll a few clips of my Boston hotel performance.
What you can expect is mainly what we communicate you're looking for, with the standard routine I use which is a 10-60 minute set of my own music, covers, or song(s) I can write, record, and perform specifically just for you. The set list time can vary to what you'd prefer and I also can provide a DJ if needed in between songs, before I go on, and/or after as wrap up music. Looking forward to bringing a show to you soon!
About
Yo!
Cm here. The big problem I hear about with booking entertainment online is that you never really know what you're getting - other than sometimes a cheap price, which often leads to other problems. Let me take the hassle out of the booking process for you: in my profile I've posted my performances and previous gigs through Gigsalad. In addition, I've gigged on an East Coast Tour in cities from Boston to NYC, Jersey City, Philly, Chicago, Nashville, and New Orleans. I can write you song(s) that I will then perform at your event if special lyrics are required. I will also gift you a mastered recorded version, along with a lyric's sheet if wanted.
I'm based out in New Orleans, but fly around the U.S. plenty. So wherever you are I'll be there to tear it up, let's talk!
Additional booking notes
- There is a travelers fee if the distance is longer than 40 miles (1 hour drive)
- There is a DJ fee which is 75$ per hour
- We will need an hour to bring in and set up equipment as well as an hour to break down and roll out equipment that will each be 50$
- It is required to communicate which equipment we will need if any that my DJ and I do not already have. For example, if your event takes place at a hotel, it's required for you to find out if we can use their house equipment.
