In my latest interview on Kingdom Builder TV, I had the privilege of sitting down with Coqui, a rising artist making waves with his unique blend of ethereal 70s rock and hip-hop-infused beats. His music is not only sonically intriguing but also deeply rooted in faith, making him a standout in the ever-expanding landscape of Christian music.

Throughout our conversation, Coqui shared his journey, from his early musical influences to his faith-driven mission as an artist. He opened up about the challenges he has faced in navigating the industry while staying true to his message. One of the most compelling aspects of our discussion was Coqui’s perspective on bringing variety to Christian music and reaching audiences who may not typically engage with the genre. He believes in breaking barriers and creating music that resonates on both a spiritual and artistic level.

One of the highlights of our discussion was his latest track, “only Idol.” After listening to it, I have to say that it completely delivers on the sound Coqui set out to achieve. The song perfectly captures that dreamy, atmospheric rock influence of the 70s while blending in modern hip-hop-style beats. It’s an interesting fusion that gives “only Idol” a fresh yet nostalgic feel.

Lyrically, the song is strong and direct about where Coqui’s heart lies—his “only Idol” is God. The track is catchy, memorable, and carries a message that stands out in today’s Christian music scene. While many faith-based songs stick to traditional styles, Coqui is carving out a space where his sound can appeal to a different demographic, bringing something new to the table while staying grounded in truth.

Hearing “only Idol” makes me look forward to seeing Coqui perform live. If you’re into music that blends classic rock aesthetics with contemporary production, this track is definitely worth a listen. It’s refreshing to see an artist who isn’t afraid to push musical boundaries while keeping Christ at the center of it all.

Coqui’s journey is one to watch, and I highly recommend checking out his music if you haven’t already. You can find “only Idol” and more of his work on Spotify, YouTube, and his social media platforms. His passion for both artistry and faith is evident in every track, and I’m looking forward to seeing where his musical path takes him next.
