Zuke | “Cupid’s Night On Halloween”, Spooky Season Smash
Just in time for Spooky Season, Zuke adds to the season’s vibe with his latest project, “Cupid’s Night On Halloween.” The multi-track project is a diverse display of talent the St. Peter’s, Missouri artist has in his bag. From traditional hip-hop to hyper-pop, Zuke brings incredible up-and-coming talent to Rap Fiesta‘s platform.
One surprising detail about Zuke’s music career is that he’s only been crafting heaters for six months. What initially started as he and a friend rapping over Xbox quickly transformed into learning how to mix and master his own songs. Trust us, “Cupid’s Night On Halloween” certainly doesn’t sound like a project created by someone who’s only been making music for less than a year.
That said, “Cupid’s Night On Halloween” is packed with some soul-stirring tracks. For instance, “So Attached” is the ideal song to bump if you need an adrenaline boost. The hyper-pop feel is packed with tons of dynamic, anime-like sounds that continually burst through the speakers.
Additionally, “So Attached” moves at such an incredibly rapid pace you’ll likely find yourself putting the track on repeat. To juice the song with even more energy, Zuke’s vocals are nothing to play with. The talented rapper pours a ton of emotion and bold expression into his bars.
Regarding the inspiration behind his EP, Zuke was intrigued by blending unconventional nicknames and situations. The rapper thought to himself, “What’s an environment I would never expect to see Cupid in?” From there, the EP was born.
I wanted to capture what it would feel like going through a metamorphosis by being in a space that you aren’t comfortable with, Zuke, regarding the inspiration behind his EP.
“Cupid’s Night On Halloween” contains a collection of songs, all with very different rhythms and vibes. This is because Zuke was committed to using a variety of producers, including Blaine Swinford (“Tip-Toeing “).
One such addicting, ominous beat is featured on “Cupid On Halloween.” The rhythm is dark and spooky, embodying something you might hear Billie Eilish featured on. The steady pace combined with the heart-pounding drums makes for a beat you can’t get enough of.
To make the song even more enticing, Zuke lays out a flow that matches the vibe perfectly. For two and a half minutes, Zuke with cover your ears in an enticing flow only made better with hard-hitting lyrics.
I feel like Cupid on Halloween the way it contradicts / it’s way too stupid / so follow me / and I could show you how we do this, Zuke.
Regarding his stage name, “Zuke” originated from the rapper’s dynamic dancing. When he was a part of a dance team, his teammates gave him the nickname because his moves always blew up the stage.
Don’t be surprised if you fall in love with Zuke after experiencing “Cupid’s Night On Halloween.” With that, make sure you give Zuke a follow on Instagram to stay updated with everything he’s working on.
