I was an EDM producer once upon a time. Now, I just produce raw trap that's nothing but pure emotion. I only use my rap as an outlet for the emotions that I feel on a daily basis. I rap and I produce beats sometimes too. https://soundcloud.com/yung_ricerice/tracks
It gives me an outlet to express the emotions that built up inside of me over time. Exposing your emotions to others, especially the negative ones, can weigh them down. With music, you can express your deepest feelings to the world and gain a sort of anonymity that I can truly appreciate.
I don't care for money, I'm already doing this shit for free. I just really want to work with the people who influenced me and earn their respect as an artist.
Jokes on you, I can change the world. Through music and my energy, I just want people to pay more attention to their inner feelings and thoughts. Just to notice them and accept that they are there would do a lot of people good mentally.
I refuse to answer questions about my childhood. Sorry not sorry.
Sybyr fka Syringe is my biggest influence considering how consistent and everchanging his music is. Eric North is also a huge one. I also really love Bones, SpaceGhostPurrp from back in the day, $ki Mask The Slump God, Xavier Wulf, Craig Xen and so much more. Everyone who's music has touched me is an influence to me.
The people who want me to make more. I thought out of the gate that everyone would say my music was garbage but I was honestly surprised at the amount of people who actually liked it. So I guess I make music for them. Also myself too.
You have feelings. You have emotions. You have anger, sadness, greed, jealousy, lust, all these things that people ignore or pretend they do not feel.
I don't honestly get nervous because, I used to be an actor. I've never performed in front of a large crowd so my feelings might be different but there's a first time for everything. ?
I see this with rappers the most but nobody wants to work with each other. Everyone is in their tight knit little circles where they repost each other and never open up to any outside talent unless they have significantly more clout. If everyone was just more chill, I think a lot of great music could be made.
It's rad bro.
I hate how my voice sounds and I hate everything I make. Artist's curse all that dumb shit.
Not really, because the Boston area has little to no culture. Cities like Chi-Town and Atlanta have huge rap scenes, while Boston hasn't put out a rapper to reach the mainstream since Joyner Lucas. Don't get me wrong, there are sure to be great artists out there, but nobody seems to pay any attention to Boston.
Determination, You get out of music what you put into music. If you don't try very hard, you're not going to see any success unless you somehow make a hit about horses or something which is all down to social trends and algorithms. It kinda sucks but people break through and so will I.
Haha. Yung $hy is so slept on considering how good his music is. I also really like Yung Flex and Terror. Some really underground artists for sure.
