son rude

After releasing his new single, Twisted, on iTunes Son Rude went straight to work. Teaming up with Jay Rodriguez and Rock Davis of Itchy House Films, for the first time since the hit video Dear Music. The track is fire and the video is looking like it might be up for a couple video award nominations. The song Twisted is the first official single released off of Son Rudes highly anticipated Independent LP, Kill the King, dropping in the summer under Aone Music Group. Some of you may be asking who is Son Rude. So we did some digging and got a quick interview with Rude.

Artist name?
Son Rude

Location?
Freehold, New Jersey

What was the hip hop scene like for you growing up?
Dad was a dj so music was always a big part of everyday. When I was young in the 90s NYC was the capital of hip hop. Rhyming was second nature.

More after the cut!

illa

Artist name? iLLA

Location? Portland, OR

What was the hip hop scene like for you growing up?
Locally… Ehhhhh some backpack rappers off that heiroglyphics and living legends tip. Then we also had the gangster rap heavy out here, Portland is on the west coast. It’s kinda funny tho cause bigger niggas from Cali (California) used to kick up here tough and recruit… Uhhh various talent lol. Mac dre and cbo used to be up in the town tough but those days are long gone.

What makes you different from other rappers out now?
Man… That’s a good question. I guess my ability, or should I say willingness to do whatever the f?@c I want. If I wanna sing a little I does it. If I want to do some pop or some electro shit I does it. If I wanna do some hood shit or swag shit I does that to. I’ve had quite an interesting journey and for anyone to tell me I’m not real or call me a sellout can kiss my ass. I’m doin me and I like all kinds of music despite how I live, or may have once lived, my life. Swagger dat

Tell us about past and current projects?
Man where to begin lol. So the most noticeable projects are probably my mixtapes. I’ve done 3, ‘what would Picasso do’ ‘something like Dali’ and ‘van gogh.’ those tapes have had the most reach but I’ve put out some small ep’s and singles along the way as well. I’m currently workin on another tape with Dj pAin1 hosting. Shit is lookin bananas so far. Really pleases with direction and the folks getting behind it. Lookin to make a huge dent in the industries forehead with this one lol.
