Welcome to The Watchlist Conversations with a Vision where Straight Official’s own Dj Gea chops it up with a purpose. RNG BIGZ is an emerging artist with a lot of flavor.

Q&A WITH RNF BIGZ

DJ GEA: Let our readers know where you’re from and how did the city where you lived motivate and push you?

RNF BIGZ: Originally I grew up in Kansas City and the city pushed me to travel and explore more music scenes because the market was small and not a lot of people make it out of Kansas City like most smaller markets there is a lot of talent and I was inspired to stand out amongst the many other artists

How did you get started in music? What was it about music that caught your attention?

I got started watching battle raps I liked the wordplay of artists like Cassidy and Meek Mills the metaphors really caught my attention as well as the approach most battle rappers had like they wanted to destroy you every time with bars and wittiness.

Where did the name come from?

RNF Bigz came from Richnfamous Bigz which came from my childhood group Richnfamous

How long have you been doing music? What has been your biggest accomplishment so far?

I’ve been doin music since middle school but I feel like the last year when I moved to Minnesota was my biggest accomplishment in music because I really got out of my shell and began traveling and investing in my career plus I met some really great people and was received well by the scene out here

Grinding is life.

SHIFTING GEARS

What do you bring to the game that no other artist is bringing now?

I have my own sound and I bring a feel good fun vibe to everything I do

In 2023 how do you plan to set the tone?

Stay consistent and put out a lot of new music, while keeping a great work ethic

LET’S TALK MUSIC

DESCRIBE YOUR STYLE OF MUSIC?

I do Feel good music that make you want to party, get money, and catch a vibe

What’s your process for writing a song?

I let the beat guide me to make the song, so if the lyrics match that specific beat I go with it or I find a beat that fits the vibe I am in at the moment

Have you had any live shows and if so tell me about your favorite performance?

I don’t really have a favorite performance, every time I perform it’s a wonderful experience seeing the reactions when people hear my music and see the energy I bring on stage

What single are you pushing and how did it come about? How long did it take to write it? Who is the producer? Is there a visual for the song?

Gelato is the single, I got the beat from an Atlanta producer Qthaproducer and he found me on instagram after I got a buzz from going to California and working with DJFlippp. I actually came up with the hook when I heard the beat so it didn’t take me that long to finish the song and a video will be dropping in the near future

IN CLOSING

Besides music, are there any other ventures you are currently sewing your seeds in?

I have a clothing company which I’m in the process of fully launching very soon

Where do you see yourself in the next 3 to 5 Years?

I see my fan base getting larger and on me tour making great music

How can people get in touch with you?

I’m on all platforms @RNFBigz and they can also reach out to my team takinittheremgmt@gmail.com

Thanks for taking time to vibe with me

38 Spesh Drops “Gunsmoke” EP

on April 3, 2023 Music add comment

38 SPESH is back in the kitchen.

Spesh, originally known as 38 Special, has been rapping since the early 2000s. In 2006, he appeared on Alive on Arrival, a mixtape by early supporter and fellow Rochester product DJ Green Lantern. By the end of that decade, Spesh had headlined a couple Lantern-presented tapes.

After serving time in prison he returned in 2012 with Time Served. This began a constant dispersal of studio projects that continued through the end of 2010. Along with numerous solo releases, Spesh showcased artists on his TCF Music Group label with the Trust Tape series.

He has blessed mics with Benny the Butcher (Cocaine Cowboys and Stabbed & Shot), Joe Blow (In the Mob We Trust), and Kool G Rap (the cross-generational Son of G Rap). Spesh closed out his second decade of activity with a handful of solo tapes, highlighted by A Bullet for Every Heathen.

Named after his strain of weed, Spesh comes with that music that will get you high.

GUNSMOKE – 38 SPESH

The 8 track EP has features from Ransom, Che Noir, the late Fred the Godson, Flee Lord, and Klass Murda. On top of his own production, Spesh is also rocking over beats by Harry Fraud, Rain910 & TrickyTrippz.

Click the play button below and add Gunsmoke wherever you get music. Stay tuned for a project from Spesh and Conway the Machine in the near future.

BODY OF WORK

Some of the grimmest and lucid street tales from post-2000 New York state underground have been spun by 38 Spesh. A boom-bap disciple with over two dozen solo and collaborative projects. Time Served (2012), Stabbed & Shot (2018), A Bullet for Every Heathen (2019), and 7 Shots (2022).

He’s worked closely with fellow Upstate natives such as Benny the Butcher and Che Noir, and has recorded with influences including Kool G Rap, Ghostface Killah, and DJ Premier.

Especially prolific in 2020, Spesh was behind at least ten titles that year alone, teaming with the likes of Che Noir and Planet Asia for numerous duo projects, and offering solo releases ranging from the instrumental set Speshal Blends to Interstate 38.

Spesh linked again with Benny the Butcher for Trust the Sopranos in 2021, and the next year issued the solo 7 Shots.
