This week's video is Pink Dust by A.CHAL. His real name is Alejandro Chal and he was born in Peru, before moving to New York with his family aged 4. He started out in the music business by rapping and making his own music with a friend at a young age, then released his debut EP Ballroom Riots online in 2013. The EP led to him signing a publishing deal with Sony/ATV.
A.CHAL then took a break for a couple of years, returning with the singles GAZI and Vibe W/U. He released his debut studio album Welcome to GAZI in June 2016, and then the single Round Whippin' in August. To date he has released several more singles including Love N Hennessey (also a remix with 2 Chainz and Nicky Jam), Cuanto (How Much) featuring A$AP Nast, Pink Dust and Hollywood Love featuring Gunna. He has also brought out another album On Gaz (2017) and the EP Exotigaz (2018). In March 2018 he signed with Epic Records.
A.CHAL kind of reminds me of Bazzi. His music has been described as "druggy atmospheric" which would fit Bazzi's too, lol. And he's also been compared to The Weeknd. His latest release is Hollywood Love which came out in May.
Pink Dust was released in March (I've had it saved on my YouTube "Watch later" playlist for a while!). The video is about searching for authentic love and chasing the high that love gives you.
