About

Red Wax is a distinct, up-and-coming, quadruple-threat - coming straight out of Southside Jamaica Queens (New York). Originally from Rochdale Village, he started music with features on local artists’s mixtapes in the early 2000’s. Taking heavy influences from notable Queens natives such as 50 Cent and G-Unit, Nas, Stack Bundles and Chinx Drugs, he had learned how to use his experiences from the streets like a bridge of relativity for his listeners. Red Wax, also known as Zuriel Clinkscales, comes from a bloodline that has produced martial arts masters, sports professionals, and urban entrepreneurs. Ultimately, his attentions went further into the streets; which led to a lengthy jail sentence of more than a decade behind the cold concrete and steel bars. No matter what though, he continued to write. The moment he was back from that sentence, he hit the ground running. After Red Wax reunited with @rydeouttheryda to drop his first single “Bant Breathe”; he released his first urban fiction novel (Black Love, Zuriel Clinkscales); and founded a business (Goranimal Content). Having learned some marketing techniques from the streets, he’s been taking his network to the grassroots and manifesting his urban street dream - the evolution continues.
