About Superstar Pride
Cadarrius Pride, affectionately known as Superstar Pride, is an artist on the rise whose name is synonymous with the level of success he envisions for himself. He comes from a small town, moving from home to home, city to city at every opportunity for a better quality of life. Though it was hard to come by, Pride longed for stability. For as long as he can remember, he’s always been in survival mode: never truly coming to terms with the idea of being comfortable. For the most part, life has been one uphill battle for Pride, fighting his way through adversity as a rite of passage towards becoming a man. And in that, he’s not alone. But more importantly, he’s deliberately vulnerable about his growth, evidenced by the emphatic lyrics that complement his Southern drawl. Tracks like the October-released “Painting Pictures” further exploit this concept of self-reflection, amounting to a record that put Pride’s prowess as an emcee into perspective. The viral success of his new single resulted in Pride’s first-ever Billboard Hot 100 entry, debuting at No. 99 and peaking in the top 30 in less than a month. Additionally, “Painting Pictures” has garnered millions of views on TikTok and launched to the top of Spotify’s Global and US Viral 50 charts. The Sardis, Mississippi rapper is the latest example of how TikTok can expand an artist’s reach to a wider audience, but there’s more to his story than the stats. With musical influences ranging from R&B/soul acts to hip-hop mainstays such as Yo Gotti, Pride’s taste in music mirrors the moments of passive aggression he experienced growing up. Today, he’s catapulted from internet sensation to international superstar and is setting the tone for a record-breaking year in 2023. So far, Pride has been championed by the likes of Billboard, XXL Magazine, and HITS Daily Double.
