Whether Kaz, Kazinova or Kaz Dolla, Mr C. A. Simmons is a man on a mission. Co-Founder and CEO of Currency Records, Kaz is focused on bringing next generation flows, lyrics, word-play and 'Phya 16's' to today's rap/hip-hop landscape.
On the streets NOW!!! "Mr, Currency presents: Open For Business" the Mix-Tape. Their freshman independent release. The talent that makes this Mix-Tape really hits the nail dead on with tales of today's hottest topics to introspective tales of society's plight in today's world. Expect nothing that you think you might expect from this one. The collaboration of Kaz and Dame and the entire Currency Family makes for an unmerciful, no-holds-barred fire-storm of todays NEW SOUND. Victory and Vision!!!
Born in one of the hardest areas of Philadelphia (60th Street SW Philly) in 1983, Kaz was forced to not only keep his head above water and stay out of the mix, but to also find ways for himself to find a way out. Always one to be creative, Kaz, born Corey A Simmons, started rapping. His first song was written by the time he entered the 5th grade and he hasn't looked back since.
Now that he's a grown man of 24 it's time for the public to hear his Mind Melodies. A mix of societal issues, club banggers, hardcore fight music, relaxing flows and nothing but talent. Kaz is bringing something special to the game in a huge way. As CEO, Artist and Songwriter of Currency Records a plan has unfolded to become the Major Alternative to sub-par lyrics, weak deliveries and the bubble gum music that the current state of the industry is providing. Kaz is a passion that appeals to all who appreciate his unique brand of reality. "Hate it or love it... you still gotta respect it" says Mr. C. A. Simmons.
"This thing here is about capitalism. Captilizing on the God-given talents to be the best rapper alive. I can't see me bringing myself down to any level that doesn't encompass greatness. As long as my voice can be heard it will be, and I don't have any patience for tieing my dreams up in the politics of this so called "music industry". 100% of my efforts go to paving a way for me and the Currency Team to be the primary beneficiaries of our labors in this game. I wouldn't have it any other way!"
