Music Background
Cecil-Raw loved music his whole life but it wasn’t until his
freshman yr of high school that it would become clear to him that
he was put on earth for music. It all started from a poem he wrote
for one of his murdered friends. (Mandale Greenwade) In the
spring of his 9th grade yr Cecil rewrote the poem for an English
class. After his friends heard it they gave him the idea to recite it
over an instrumental. Even though that was the 1st time he done it.
It felt so natural. So he continued to write his feelings on paper and
putting it on top of tracks. After being in a lot of groups Cecil finally
realized that he would have to get it done on his own. (SOLO)
Cecil is currently working his debut album that is scheduled to drop
this year.
