My name is Corwin Campbell Aka NegritoPapi and I was born and raised in San Antonio, Texas.
I love music because it brings people together. No matter how different backgrounds can be we all can share the love for the same song together. Rather that is rapping and or singing, music brings a connections that controls our emotions. Music has the ability to make you cry when a huge amount of dopamine is released due to lyrics. Music can make you get up and dance or just simply vibe.
What makes me different from other artists is how I see music as a form of art. Yes everybody knows music is a form of art but, what makes my art unique is my perspective on it. I believe not only the music is the art but the video, the marketing, and even the merchandise is a form of the art as well. You have to be precise about your work every detail matters from the beat to the music down to the actual making of the music video. Unlike most artists I write about what I know, what I've dealt with and what has made me into the man that I am today. My vision is something other people may not see, but my goal is to make you understand and relate too. Throughout my music I am able to remain humble, and that's what truly makes my music stand out. I also shoot and edit my own music videos ,along with creating my cover art. In five years I see myself changing how we engage with music videos. Im real big with involving tech with my music. For example April 22nd of last year I dropped a music video on YouTube called “NFT” and the video featured myself in the “Metaverse” performing in front of a virtual crowd. 9 months later Meta actually has a virtual concert that has performances from Nardo Wick, Latto and even the late Notorious BIG. Most people would think they just got ripped off and had their idea stolen by a bigger platform. I didn’t look at the situation like that , I looked at it like I was a head of my time .
In 5 years I see myself becoming one of the biggest emerging artist out of Texas. I’m versatile creative and I believe I have what it takes to become the next big thing internationally. I plan on starting a record label in the future. I want to manage and help push other artist. I’ve always looked up to other moguls such as Jay-z , Master P and Birdman. I see how the moguls run their company and I always admired that.
Like i mention before , I want to bring technology into the rap scene. The rap scene is the most influential genre of music but last when it comes to development. I want to stay ahead of the music industry and continue to evolve . Some examples of what I plan on bringing to the rap community is marketing ads that’s more appealing to the youth. I’m real big with the virtual reality as I stated earlier and would like other rappers to get involved. Last but not least financial literacy is important!
I want to leave a legacy. When they mention my name I want the accomplishments to linger with it. I want to be the one who they talk about when it comes to being creative ,or just different. Becoming relevant for the next generation is a must when talking about what you want to leave behind.

The Hustle Trap: How Chasing Success Is Quietly Stealing Your Happiness
For an entire generation, success has been rebranded as a lifestyle. Social media feeds are filled with early mornings, late nights, motivational quotes, and captions that glorify exhaustion as a badge of honor. The message is clear and constant: if you are not grinding, you are falling behind. This idea, often called “hustle culture,” has become one of the most powerful and persuasive narratives of modern life. At first glance, it sounds inspiring. Work hard. Push yourself. Don’t settle for average. These are not harmful ideas on their own. The problem begins when effort becomes an identity and rest becomes something to feel guilty about. Many people now measure their worth by how busy they are. The signs of the hustle trap often appear quietly. Skipped meals become normal. Sleep becomes optional. Weekends turn into “catch-up days.” Time with family and friends starts to feel like a distraction instead of a joy. The line between dedication and self-neglect slowly disappears. Psychologists warn that chronic overwork doesn’t just drain energy — it changes how the brain responds to stress. When the body stays in a constant state of pressure, it begins to treat even small challenges as threats. This can lead to anxiety, irritability, and a feeling of being permanently on edge. Ironically, this state of mind often makes people less productive, not more. Creativity declines. Decision-making becomes rushed. Focus becomes scattered. The very success people are chasing starts to move further away. One of the most dangerous myths of hustle culture is the idea that “you can rest after you make it.” The problem is that “making it” is a moving target. There is always another goal, another level, another comparison. Without realizing it, people can spend their entire lives chasing a future moment of peace that never arrives. But a quiet shift is beginning. More professionals, entrepreneurs, and creators are starting to question the grind. They are redefining success not just by income or status, but by quality of life. They are asking different questions: Do I have time for the people I care about? Do I enjoy my daily routine? Do I feel present in my own life? Some companies are experimenting with four-day workweeks. Others are encouraging employees to fully disconnect after hours. Individuals are setting boundaries around their time and attention, even when it feels uncomfortable at first. This doesn’t mean ambition is disappearing. It means it’s being reshaped. There is a growing understanding that sustainable success is built like a marathon, not a sprint. It requires pacing, recovery, and self-awareness. Just as athletes schedule rest days to avoid injury, high performers are learning to schedule mental and emotional recovery to avoid burnout. Another powerful realization is that identity should not be tied to productivity alone. People are more than what they produce. They are friends, partners, parents, learners, and community members. When work becomes the only source of meaning, everything else can start to feel empty by comparison. Small changes can begin to loosen the grip of the hustle trap. Turning off notifications in the evening. Taking a real lunch break. Saying no to commitments that don’t align with personal values. These acts may seem minor, but they send a powerful message to the mind: my life is not a machine. In a world that constantly pushes for more, choosing “enough” can feel like an act of rebellion. But it is often in that space — between ambition and acceptance — that people rediscover something they didn’t even realize they were losing. Joy.
