Meet Cadaris DeLoach

Alright – so today we’ve got the honor of introducing you to Cadaris DeLoach. We think you’ll enjoy our conversation, we’ve shared it below.

Hi Cadaris, really happy you were able to join us today and we’re looking forward to sharing your story and insights with our readers. Let’s start with the heart of it all – purpose. How did you find your purpose?

Since a young age, I’ve been around and involved in music and fashion. Therefore; it was easy to gravitate towards, once I knew I was capable of creating and releasing music and apparel.

Thanks, so before we move on maybe you can share a bit more about yourself?

My name is Cadaris DeLoach, my stage name is CoolGuy, and I am from Lumberton, NC. I have been doing music for almost 10 years and designing for 6 years. I am apart of a music group called Blessed And Determined (B.A.D) and part owner of XtraSauc Brand. My artistic journey started as a freestyle dancer, which led to me recording and performing my own songs. I was always inspired by fashion designers, specially streetwear. This drove me into making a clothing brand. I have performed shows throughout the Carolinas, and have songs that were heard internationally. Some accomplishments include; opening for Wale and meeting Rico Love. My brand has reached across the US and has been featured in stores in Lumberton.
Soon, I’ll be releasing a mixtape and merch collection. The mixtape will be a sequel for my recents releases, and will be available on all streaming platforms. My plan is to merch and CD’s available in the near future, after the launch of the mixtape.

If you had to pick three qualities that are most important to develop, which three would you say matter most?

First, knowing and having a clear vision for my art was definitely the most important piece to my journey. Secondly, possessing a good skill of communication helped a lot along the way. Being able to introduce myself, speak with a variety of different people and cultures, and express my thoughts and plans. Third, being charismatic gave me an edge in this industry.
For those who are interested or starting out, I’ll tell them to be in tuned with themselves and build up their confidence. Also, have a community of individuals that can help, support and push you towards your goals.

Alright so to wrap up, who deserves credit for helping you overcome challenges or build some of the essential skills you’ve needed?

On this journey, I’ve had numerous individuals who were impactful in achieving my dreams. From family members to close friends, group members, business partners, and several mentors and associates. But the ones who effected me more than any, was my sons. Being a father taught me tremendously, gave me patience and strength to overcome many obstacles.
