One day with Chicago’s new rising talent Eva Castillo or better known as DJ “Box Chevee”  and you cannot help but feel inspired by her creativity and hustle. As a multi-faceted artist, growing up in the Logan Square area and traveling back and forth to Mexico often, Eva draws her inspiration from her culture and community. Admittedly on a quest for a humbling and organic life experience, Eva is set to uncover her history and how it connects to her. Inherently, Eva is someone who is fueled by her surroundings and is constantly reassessing and checking in on herself which questions such as “What can I do differently?” or “What should I bring awareness to?”

TRUE LYRICIST: FR35H 

Fr35h and hip-hop seem to compatible to not share an intimate bond. They were both birthed in the early 80s, during the notorious Regan and crack era. Fr35h is an artist who has persevered through the trials and tribulations of growing up in a poverty stricken area. Capturing an audience who awaits with bated breath to hear Fr35h’s poetic, heartfelt, and occasionally painful stories over soulful beats that resonate within the souls of each of his fans. 

As of 2021, FR35h has took on the task of recording and releasing an exclusive track every Friday. Fr35h has been on a long, hard, and tumultuous journey. Although the bond with hip-hop was never compromised and his loyalty never wavered, the future for one of the best lyricists is a promising one. 


Hip-Hop never died! Every now and again, it just needs a breath of Fr35h air.

Focus.Unfocus gathers various ideas and perspectives on art, culture, and photography into one conversation led by me, Daniel Delgado. Listen to photographers and other creatives discuss these topics that I’m curious to dive into & hope you are too.

A New Beginning. Big fan of J Dilla, old music, vise versa. Fun fact: I don't care about what you say about me nor my craft.
