CHARLESTON MUSIC AND ENTERTAINMENT SCENE: Wayne Cz

Wayne Cz

CEO of Surviva/Pathfindaz Entertainment

CEO Surviva West Records

Wayne Cz descends from a city called Charleston, which is a part of South Carolina that is very unique. It is the birthplace of slavery in the United States. This city is rich with history, although it’s a very painful history; it is that history that optimizes the struggle of Wayne Cz and the African-American to this day. The original language of the African slave known as Gullah has stood the test of time, and is apparent in the way they speak today. As our slave ancestors began integrating their African rhyme language with English it formed an accent that is referred to today as “Gee chi”. This fact along with the creative traditions of music in the low country area has created a very unique sound that has translated over into the Hip Hop music scene in the southeast regions of the Carolinas.

Wayne Cz (the Cz stands for Competition zero) is the youngest member of the South Carolina’s notorious rhyme family The Carolina Pathfindaz, which currently has a member artist J.D. Hawg on tour with Petey Pablo. Wayne Cz through his dedication and raw talent has moved up the ranks to the title of CEO of the new Surviva Click/Pathfindaz Entertainment Company.

He has put work in for over Ten Years, which is an amazing accomplishment considering he is at the tender age of 24. He has done shows with B.G. (formerly of Cash Money Records), Mystical of No Limit Records, Fiend, Petey Pablo, Gangsta Boo, Ying Yang Twins, Master P, 50 Cent (CEO of G-Unit), Jim Crow, Juvinile, Youngbloods and the list continues to grow.

Wayne Cz sees his calling to music synonymous to an addiction. Throughout all his struggles he knows he is alive for a reason and he prepares himself everyday for the duty put upon him to change the way men especially African-American men are viewed as a whole. Wayne Cz currently has mix tape CDs circulating throughout the southeast as well as his own mix tape CD series, under the alias “DJ Kak Kylla” called the “Surviva Click”. He has several articles and interviews in local and regional magazines and publications. Wayne Cz has also been featured on “Hood 2 Hood” DVD series which was distributed nationally along with a video that was aired on BET’’s uncut.
