CraCajaC

About Me


Thought provoking lyrics and innovative production combined with powerhouse hooks and sensible writing. CraCajaC's bold expression of real life and personal struggles along with his close relationship with God brings a unique style to his music. Not your "typical" rap. Matt Gaskins (CraCajaC) is a musical artist from Bolingbrook, IL. He began writing music and poetry at the age of 15 and has been pursuing his dream ever since. He was given the nickname "cracker jack" in high school by one of his good friends - and it stuck. His music is a direct reflection of his life, with things he has experienced and seen happen around him. CraCajaC writes and produces all of his music and is currently working on his second album.
His first album "Percussions" is available on i TUNES.
