Sick Hook

Download “Sick Hook”

This is a track that was inspired by my life in more ways than one. I must have put this Pete Rock instrumental on a CD during the planning stages for a new mixtape for Tha Union. I came up with a crazy hook for the track (seriously) – it was really tight and I had it memorized for the time being. Then as time went by, life got in the way and then when I heard the beat again I couldn’t recall the hook to save my life. I started freestyle and bullshitting on the track again and the new hook “I used to have a real sick hook to this…” stuck. The rest is history. Secondly, being super busy with work, clients and family I had zero quiet time to sit and write songs. The majority of my last two CDs were not written on paper but freestyles performed in my car – driving to and from workplaces. This song captures this moment in my life when not even a hectic schedule could stop the music, without a pen and pad or a raw hook (that I forgot), I still kept making that hip hop funk. The music video will illustrate all of this. Enjoy!

Say it Loud – New Times

I was featured in a section called “Say It Loud” in the New Times on July 8, 2004. The only error in his snippet is that The Union Entertainment is NOT from West Palm but I’m not complaining. I guess I revealed my sensitive side:

He’s a rapper, producer, and co-founder of the West Palm Beach hip-hop promotion company Tha Union. But Ctraffik is also a sensitive guy. He took time to answer the question:

What song always makes you cry?

The entire Wu-Tang Clan Enter the 36 Chambers CD would probably get some tears jerking. The Wu fell off so bad, it’s a crying shame that they don’t bring back the old-school funk they were cooking up in 1993! Rap music has gone to the dogs! — Audra Schroeder
