Denver Artist ‘BAUX’ Drops New Single ‘Mannish’ and Speaks on his Musical Upbringing

BAUX THE ARTIST prides himself on being raised in a household where several types of music were acceptable from R & B, rap, pop, soul, afro beats, and overall any type of great music was acceptable. Growing up in Mississippi it’s not uncommon that his humble beginnings and introduction to music would be grounded in the church. We are talking about the old school type of church where it was all all day affair.

It was because of the early inception of church, family, low economics, combined with good music and cookouts, this is what built strong communities of people who were forced to lean on each other. During these times there was truly strong story-telling going on in rhythm and blues, country music and later rap musicians started to imitate these models but perhaps went a little too far when they started to tell on themselves especially crimes that were being committed in their rap songs. This isn’t always the case in rap, but as the world changes the secular authorities are starting to hold artists accountable to the lyrics they produce.

“How do we change the current narrative of the culture?” “Why is it important to have a personal team”, “How can we avoid money missing and improper paperwork in contracts? asks Baux in a recent sit down interview he did with Rolling Out Magazine. Check out his answer in the video at the end of this article.

Baux also mentions his new single ‘Mannish’ which he is currently pushing from his new EP titled ‘GUMBO’. Why GUMBO? Well mainly because this artist cannot be placed in a box! (No pun intended). Music lovers will be receiving afro-beats, country, pop, R & B music, hip hop and more. Check out Baux the artist! Steaming on all platforms
