In the heart of Hedgesville, West Virginia, a new musical talent is making waves. Dashawn Riley, better known by his stage name Ciaga2X, is a rising rapper and singer who is quickly gaining attention for his unique sound and heartfelt lyrics.
Ciaga2X’s journey into music began over a year ago, when his friends introduced him to the world of creating tracks on Bandlab. From there, he discovered a passion for music that he never knew he had. “When I heard their tracks, they put me onto Bandlab and that’s where I started creating music,” he explains. “I began to find a love and passion for it.”
What sets Ciaga2X apart from other artists is his ability to evoke powerful emotions through his music. “I make music for you to feel,” he says. “Whether that’s to get in your bag or your box or lock in. My sound allows me to do different things – I can rap, make melodies, and create this environment from my music.”
One of Ciaga2X’s favorite lyrics from his recent song “Drgs4u” ft. Gldnchild perfectly captures this sentiment: “If you gon ball with me then I’m gon need you to fall through.” It’s a poignant message about the importance of follow-through in relationships.
As Ciaga2X’s career takes off, he has big plans for the future. “I plan on achieving growth and getting my music more into the public eye,” he says. “I also want to be able to turn this into more than a side thing, to be able to help my family off of the music. Doing something I love is a dream.”
Fans of Ciaga2X have a lot to look forward to in the coming weeks. He has a single dropping this week called “Sundayy,” and another one lined up for next week once it’s approved by the platforms. The second track is titled “Call my Nino.”
