CAZWELL is a New York-based rapper, songwriter and entertainer whose videos are frequently featured on the LOGO network, “though [according to Wikipedia] some of his music has been considered too explicit for this channel.”
One other aspect sets Cazwell apart from many of his peers: His sexuality and his fresh mindset about it. “I want to make gay people cool again. Yeah, we have Queer
Eye for the Straight Guy, but not all gay men want to makeover your house. Growing up gay, you have to think outside the box your whole life. I want to show what the gay mind can do for hip-hop, for electronic music, and how interesting that take can be.” And although there is a smutty, playful side to some of his raps, who Cazwell sleeps with never upstages who he is as an artist. “To just talk about gay stuff seems so surface level. I know I can’t just show up at the Source Awards and go, ‘Hey guys, I’m here!’ So instead, I have to create a new space and invite the people, everybody, to come to me.”
TEAM GINA is made up of two fierce femmes: GINA BLING and GINA GENIUS, a former Homecoming Queen and Pageant Winner.
TEAM GINA has synchronized dance routines that will blow your mind. Phat beats, hype rhymes for days & matching outfits that will make you cry.”
Team Gina must be seen to be believed.
