A raspy voice combined with reggae-infused musical style, makes him a force to be reckoned with. He’s already worked with big names such as Wyclef Jean, Mike Posner and Big Sean. The video for his song, “Liar Liar” featuring Pharrell, already has more than 16 million views on YouTube. Cris made a Canadian Music Week visit and performed at the CHUM FM FanFest.
We got a chance to chance with Cris about his rise in the music world.
This year has already been pretty exciting for you, with touring and the album release—what went into the making of Where I Belong?
Having a mentor like Pharrell is a huge deal. What have you learned from him?
CC: I’ve learned
so much from Pharrell. He’s a really cool guy. He’s got such great
musical wisdom and life advice. He’s a hard worker, number one. He
teaches you that there are no shortcuts for hard work. He also teaches
you to remain humble and treat everyone the same, and that’s really
important. Everyone plays a different role in the world, but
regardless, everybody is a human being. He teaches you that we’re all
one.

Lightning round:
Something you can't leave your house without? My guitar.
Most embarrassing song we'd find on your iPod? Norah Jones, "Come Away With Me"
Biggest fear? Hmm, I guess falling.
If you could invite someone over for dinner, alive or dead, who would it be? Bob Marley.
What is your spirit animal? I think it's a dog.
Who would play you in a movie? Danny DeVito. If there's ever a Cris Cab movie, that's the first person I'm calling. I know he would kill it.
Any hidden talents? I'm a great shower dancer. As soon as the soap hits my toes, I can't stop it. In the shower I go for a mixture of the electric slide and the hustle. It's kind of different and innovative to the shower dancing world. Very few people get to see it.

CC: That's hard. I guess, if they gave me some kind of chicken every day, but I had different sauces, I think I'd be good.

the 1st(your favourite)reggae song that you heard? How did it influence

CC: First reggae song I heard was Jammin' by Bob Marley when I was like seven years old in the Bahamas and that really struck me. Bob Marley at that age really played a critical role. That's why I really love infused reggae and it comes so naturally to me.
