"Father of Urban Rock", Kastro Zizo talks about his career and recent successes in America
This morning, the famous singer Kastro Zizo, who stands out for his very successful career in the music industry, was invited to the "Wake Up" show. Recently, he has been present at several events in America, where he has been awarded with several awards as the artist of the year in defense of human rights causes, gender equality and more. Asked about this experience, he said:
"If these sentences were said a year ago, I would really feel like I was living in a parallel universe, because a lot of events have happened in two months and less and I am still not used to these sentences. However, beyond modesty, I have started to get used to it and to like it. To like it, because in these 25 years of career it is not the first prize, but the fact that in one way or another you are honored by those great people, makes the weight of the prize even greater ."
Although Kastro is well known for his career as a musician and as an accomplished artist in Albania, perhaps not everyone knows the other side of him, that of defending various causes, some of which the artist mentioned as the most below:
"This also comes as a result of how I have presented myself in public. This way of presenting myself in public has been totally intentional, as I have wanted for my own reasons. Human regeneration in the past, of the present and the future, without question it must be done in the objective circumstances of the reality that surrounds it, to make it better and to change it in function of yourself, your family or the environment. The same thing happened to me."
Kastro Zizo, in addition to his music, has also been noted for another side of his personal life, such as alcohol consumption, but he now says that it is a closed chapter for him. Regarding this drastic change in his life, he stated:
"If I can call it "my inner revolution", let's say it started with quitting alcohol and with a very important element is my heart man. A man has the incredible potential to change himself, but our self is connected to the system, to others. And I was and am lucky to have a strong man to hold me. Without a doubt, the birth of my children."
After returning to his successes, he became the image of the cover of the magazine "New York Elite Magazine" for the month of January 2023 and the media "New York Glamor Magazine" gave him the title "Father of Urban Rock". His influence is felt in every generation and Castro says:
"I think I was very lucky to have had freedom and support. I am a very lucky person. Top Albania Radio is also a big supporter of who I am today. I found myself at the right moment and in the place right."
While being interviewed about musical hits and current phenomena, of course it could not be left without mentioning the "BBV" show, where Castro gave his opinion about the figure that Luizi has created inside the house and not only:
"Yes, I see Big Brother and I think that Luizi can very well run for mayor when I come out after "BBV". He got in there with pencil and paper. I have this fame by chance, because people are found to him and don't forget the fun element of passing the time. Louis must be very clever when he goes out and uses this thing."
