hmmm....think jay-z mixed with kirk franklin and a touch of royce & wayne....now smile wide!
in the late 1800’s, a sheriff by the name of cassius m. hollister protected the people of a kansas town. armed with only a six shooter, the former u.s. marshall restored order and peace to this once unruly place. now, in the new millennium, there is a new sheriff in town. instead of being armed with a six shooter, this cashius hollistah (aka cash) is armed with a machine gun clip of brilliant rhymes, innovated beats and the word of God to restore order to the rap game. by gaining musical influence from everyone from the winans to nirvana to jay-z, cash has been able to keep his sound fresh and uplifting. he’s not bringing the traditional bible thumping “turn or burn” message of old. he uses his eclectic, fresh, smooth sound to express his profound perspective of the message of Christ.
currently residing in atlanta, cash is bringing his brand of hip-hop with him, planning to take the game into unchartered waters and show the world how this kid from salina, ks (yes, kansas) can rep Christ through hip-hop. there’s a new sheriff in town, so all of the hip-hop outlaws must beware….
