New artist on the scene Upscale Cracc is one to watch as he continues to explore his new career endeavor as a musician. Born Javier Osorio-Mejia in Brooklyn, New York, Upscale grew up going back and forth between New York and New Jersey, embracing his Dominican roots along the way.

Understanding how tough and impossible it would be to make it all on your own, Upscale stresses the importance of surrounding yourself with a good crew and building up a solid team around you. He notes that you have to always believe in yourself, and overall just do good business.
