C. Titus: The Authentic Voice of Oakland
Born and raised in the vibrant city of Oakland, California, recording artist and producer C. Titus is a rising force in hip-hop, blending authentic storytelling with undeniable talent. Music runs in his veins, with his first introduction to the craft coming from his father, a seasoned musician who sought to shield his son from the harsh realities of Oakland’s streets. Rather than leave him vulnerable to those dangers, Caurice Titus Sr. brought young Titus to studio sessions, immersing him in the world of live music. These early experiences were shaped by his father’s masterful skills on the drums, keyboard, and trumpet. The musical legacy continued with the influence of his cousins, Black Albert—a respected artist—and Sonny B., a renowned producer who worked with legends such as Tupac Shakur, Too $hort, and The Delinquents. This creative environment inspired C. Titus to evolve into both an artist and producer, forging his own unique path in the music industry.
C. Titus embodies authenticity. Every lyric he pens is rooted in truth, leaving no room for pretense. His music offers a genuine, relatable energy that resonates deeply with listeners from all walks of life. One such listener is Shanasia Jones, an emerging artist from Brooklyn, New York, who credits C. Titus as a key inspiration in her journey. His influence goes beyond music, as he’s also the Co-founder of Realede Records, an independent music label he re-energized in 2023 after a brief hiatus to focus on life and priorities.
September 2023 marked C. Titus’ triumphant return with the release of his singles "DLT" and "Make It Last," accompanied by their music videos. His latest track, "Mutual" featuring Gabby Rose, showcases his distinct sound—a blend that fits seamlessly among artists like Nas, J. Cole, Nipsey Hussle, and The Game.
As C. Titus continues to build his legacy, his journey is just beginning. His unwavering dedication to originality and realness promises fans a consistent flow of music that’s both impactful and inspiring.
