In an effort to raise funds for domestic violence survivors, Seattle rapper Draze has teamed up with Cupcake Royale to create the original “Seattle Sweeties” cupcake series. There are six new flavors, each representing the diversity of beauty, style and culture of the women in the Pacific Northwest. Among the delicious new flavors are Choco-latte, Vanilla Dream, Chai Cinnamon, Caramel Delight, Lemon Cherry Blossom, and Banana Cream.
The inspiration behind this collaboration is Draze’s new song “Seattle Sweeties.”
“Being a home grown artist, I can appreciate the uniqueness of the women of this region,” says Draze. “Their energy is not like women from New York or LA. I can only describe it as, ‘very Seattle.’ With this track I tried to capture a piece of their mystic.”
The “Seattle Sweeties” cupcakes will be available at each Cupcake Royale location now through November 22, 2015. A portion of the proceeds from each cupcake sold will go to benefit “Runway to Freedom,” an organization working to help survivors of domestic violence.
“Runway to Freedom is committed to empowering survivors of domestic violence by funding local organizations that provide individuals and families with the education and resources needed to get out of dangerous situations and start living healthy lives,” says Lauren Grinnell, founder of Runway to Freedom.
Draze’s new single is available online as a free download on soundcloud. Check out The Seattle Sweeties music video below.
