More about C.Luk
After nearly ten years of performing and recording (with four independent albums and five mixtapes to his name), C-Luk still manages to be a refreshing presence in the underground hip hop scene. He has a drawn a number of comparisons in his career and these simply serve to reflect his own influences: enlightening his audiences like KRS-One, bringing satirical humor and potent delivery like Eminem, and possessing the quiet swagger of a street savvy gentleman, a quality that Jay-Z exemplifies and C-Luk takes after. His poetic ability and wordplay would rival the best in the industry and has drawn praise from the likes of Michael Bivins who could find no other words to describe C-Luk besides, “that boy is crazy!” His fellow Asian-American MC, legendary rap battler Jin, has said that “C-Luk goes hard, his [expletive] is hot.”

C-Luk, born Chantha Luk, is a first generation immigrant from Cambodia. His family escaped genocide in the early 80’s and went through years in refugee camps waiting for their turn to get on the plane to the “land of opportunity.” When they finally made it out of their hellish existence and to the states, they found themselves surrounded by more violence in the poorest parts of Massachusetts. Growing up, gang life was prominent among C-Luk’s peers with nearly all his male relatives engaging in gang-related activities and spending their days as “stick up kids.” C-Luk never looked down on their life choices but decided that he himself would turn away from the negativity. But redeeming aspects of having a crew kept him close to the streets, even though he has always preferred to escape it.

And this is the essence of C-Luk’s music, art, and person: he manages to stay in tune with all the harsh realities of the urban community while offering an escape through his artistry. He might do it by making you laugh, or exposing what ruins our communities, or he might even ease your troubles by relating to the pain that is out there, or he could just as easily help his audiences escape by infecting them with his poetry.

C-Luk is and has always been an avid student of life. He sees equal value in a stack of poetry from the Harlem Renaissance and a stack of articles from the New York Times. If he’s not in the studio or doing freestyle exercises, you might catch him practicing scales and chords on a keyboard. If he’s not rocking a stage, you might catch him in a community theatre playing roles here and there. If he’s not writing rhymes, you might find him writing a film script. If he’s not chopping it up with his boys back home getting wise to what’s good in the streets, you might find him watching Jeopardy and getting wise with Alex Trebec.

The majority of his energy is spent on the stage with a mic in his hand.
