Coast Contra Booking Agency Profile
The West Coast hip-hop of the 1990s is referenced in the music of the rap group Coast Contra, but with intricate poetry and R&B undertones. The first song from Coast Contra, Apt. 505 and their debut studio album, which features the twin sons of soul singer Teedra Moses and rapper Ras Kass, were released.
Rappers Ras and Taj Austin, who were brought up in a musical environment by parents who worked in the music business, founded Coast Contra. The Austin brothers and rapper Rio Loz started collaborating on music while they were still in high school. Eric Jamal, a fourth rapper, joined the group after high school and they all cohabitated and worked in Los Angeles.
The song "Queen & Slim" was the first Coast Contra tune to be fully released. BJ the Chicago Kid contributed a verse to the retro-sounding song, which was featured on the soundtrack of the same-named movie. Before the year was over, Coast Contra continued to share the 10,000 Hours mixtape and release new tunes. The group's debut studio album Apt. 505, which bears the name of the LA apartment they occupied while their music was in its incubation stages, was released. The album featured guest appearances from Travis Walker, Sakari and other artists, as well as several of Coast Contra's earlier tracks..

An example fee to book Coast Contra is in the starting range of $25,000-$39,999. However, any recent popularity change would cause a price fluctuation well beyond this example. Also, their speaking fee might be different than the fee shown for the cost to perform or to just appear. Popularity, career stage, along with current demand will cause fluctuations in their speaking price as well. The final booking price may be more than what is shown, but you should at least have a budget within that range for them to consider an appearance, performance or speaking engagement.

By not having funding ready then it will more difficult to book Coast Contra, because they get many offers to work events that are at or above asking price. It is also important to consider the travel costs when researching the Coast Contra booking fee, as additional expenses like this, as well as an entourage of staff and equipment, are not necessarily built-in to the booking fee range shown. If your budget does not factor that in, then there is no benefit for them to want to be hired. We do not personally speak for Coast Contra, but in our experience in booking talent for over 25 years, this is generally the outcome of inadequate funding.
