Newcomer Kashus Culpepper Releases Mournful First Single 'After Me?'

If Kashus Culpepper wasn't already on your radar, he will be now that he's released his first official single 'After Me?,' the haunting tune that quickly became a social media success in late 2023.

Now, the bewitching, albeit heart-wrenching, song has been officially released and is poised to launch Culpepper among the stars.

“The support of this song on socials and at my shows has blown my mind,” Culpepper shares of the tune. “Can't wait for everyone to hear the whole song, cause I'm over the moon about how it turned out. This is only the beginning, and I'm truly happy that 'After Me?' is my first single.”

'After Me?' arrives shortly after it was announced Culpepper had joined the Big Loud roster, inking a deal with the renowned country label earlier this month.

“Truly honored to be a part of the Big Loud family,” Culpepper shared of the partnership. “They've believed in my music and songs since the beginning. Their intense love of music, and the rich history of it all matches mine, and I couldn't be more grateful to be surrounded around like-minded people. I'm so excited to be part of this lineup of artists that I've listened to for so long. Once again, thank you for believing in my music! Much love!”

Of the artist, Big Loud Records' VP of A&R, Nate Yetton, noted: “The moment I heard Kashus Culpepper's powerhouse voice I passionately knew that I wanted to work with him. Kash has vast knowledge and enthusiasm for various genres of music both past and present, and we quickly saw how the combination of immense talent and exceptional taste would be distinguishable pillars of his artistry. I'm beyond thrilled for Big Loud Records to have formed a creative partnership with Kashus Culpepper.”

Big Loud CEO Seth England added: “Kash is a one-of-one artist. He's got raw ability and star quality, and the songs to back all of that up. We're proud to partner with Kash and help introduce him to the world.”

With a number of shows already under his belt, the newcomer will keep up the momentum throughout the summer, acting as support for Charley Crockett and NEEDTOBREATHE on their respective tours.
