C5 gives hope to all the independent rappers in the world. Hailing from Oakland, California, the conscious rapper and songwriter has been grinding for years, adamant on creating real, heartfelt music based on real-life occurrences and experiences. 

Now, he unleashes his highly-anticipated album titled Swimming With A Pisces, premiered today exclusively on Flaunt. The project brings out the introspective and emotional side of C5, going inside the mind of a Pisces and the struggles he faces to not compromise his morals in a world full of betrayal and deceit.

Through his rap career, C5 feels he’s been making music he’s supposed to make to get his name out there, but not staying true to his vulnerable side. This album highlights exactly what he felt and experienced in those emotional moments, spanning topics of relationships, family, and friendships. With features from Chevy Woods and Adrian Marcel, Swimming With A Pisces is based on true events and delivers songs you can ride to, cry to, party to, and inspire you… something he deems his best work to date.

Speaking on the project, he states, “This album will not only have you boppin' your head but it will invoke raw emotions that everyone will relate to. There’s beauty and freedom in being your authentic self because each one of us goes through the motions. You gotta be you. You'll play this record from start to finish without skipping a track, relating to every lyric, while putting it on repeat.”
