SwagRight Toni

SwagRight Toni Opens Up About Her Early Life, Creative Process & More

10/08/2022 by chaari_

Who is SwagRight Toni &What Is Your Background?

America’s Favorite Stud, Billion Dollar Baby,  The Gay Agenda, SwagRight Toni or Toni Wells. People have called me many things but in essence, I’m everything the music industry has been missing. I come from the little big city of Ann Arbor Michigan, a college town just outside of Detroit. Although I grew up in one of the richest cities in America I grew up in the worst part during the crack epidemic in the 90s. Ultimately shit wasn’t as sweet as it seemed and the hardships I endured mixed with the privileges afforded me by where I grew up molded the artist before you today.

 

Your biggest influence in hip hop?

Hip-Hop is my influence, I truly am a child of the culture. Personally, my favorite rapper is DMX but as an artist, my style is a mash-up of so many people I’ve listened to over the years. Childhood growing up on artists like Snoop, Biggie, Pac and Chuck D who you can hear influences in my single Slave House.  As a teen in the Napster era I suddenly had access to everything rap new and old. Falling in love with DMX and the Ruff Ryder Movement. Diving into Huston culture and the DJ Screw movement. Smoke culture had me listening to rappers like Devin the Dude Cypress Hill and Ludacris. As much as I love the older artists I’m proud of the new generation of rap that has been inspired by Hip Hop’s founders. Atlanta’s takeover has been inspiring musically and as far as how we do business as independent artists. My love for this music runs deep

Your first release and what leads you to the game?

My background in the music industry for the last 5 years has been in artist management. My first single “Cakes” was released on Thanksgiving Day 2021. I had a lot to be thankful for and making the transition to signing myself as a artist was number one. Honestly, I had no intention of making this song by myself. The original plan was for me to get several other artists into the studio and work on a collaborative track where I wrote The Hook and arrange the song and they would actually be the talent on the track. I was happy to just get my DJ Khaled on and not rap. Unfortunately after booking studio time and scheduling to record with everyone not one artist showed up. Me and the engineer just decided we should record the hook, I freestyle the rest of the song and we made history. My latest single Fake is the story behind my feelings towards a lot of the people who I’ve worked with in the music business and my journey into being an independent music artist.

What kind of emotions do you try to give the person listening?

I really don’t want to control the emotions the Listener has when they listen to my music as long as they feel it and it’s invoking some type of emotion within them it’s good music to me. Most of the time I just want the underlying theme of my music to be fun but It really depends on the song. For instance, with my first single “Cakes” it was just a strip club song something to shake your ass to and have fun. On the other hand, my second single slave house was filled with sociopolitical commentary but ignorant rapper shit at the same time because we woke up but still we having fun. I’m going to be driving into deeper subject matters with my new music. For instance, my new single “Fake” touches on business friendships and betrayals and my upcoming single “Problems” is about my own personal battles with depression.

What is your creative process like?

I’m always singing or rapping to myself honestly I’ve probably forgotten more hit hooks than most artists have ever written. My production team keeps me loaded up on beats. So sometimes the song concept comes from the beat or sometimes it’s just something I started writing in my head already. Good music and good lyrics haunt me like the ancestors talking to me in my head. Saying them out loud and putting them to music is a level of satisfaction only artists really can understand.

Where do you see yourself in the future with this career?

Working hard and being Kanye rich is the goal. How I go about it is optional. I love being an independent artist and I put the work in to be able to monetize my brand and benefit from leveraging ownership. At the same time, I can’t say I would never sign with a major label. I just know my entertainment lawyer will be looking over every detail before I sign anything.

If not rap, what else would you be doing right now?

I would love for Politics to be a part of my next chapter but I could see myself running a nonprofit to benefit the African American community here in America and offset systemic racism

How much have you grown as an artist?

I feel like I’ve truly found my sound in the last 12 months. Because becoming an artist wasn’t planned and I’m not someone who has been recording music. I wasn’t sure of the sound I wanted to create as an artist. After putting together the team of producers that I work with and finding two engineers who have helped me mold my sound I’m honestly proud of how much my music has improved so quickly. I’ve been able to consistently create better music every time I am in the studio

How are you different from others in this game?

I go harder than so many of my peers. In an industry where some of the most talented people are very complacent and because of this they fall off and try to blame the people around them. I know that no matter how good my music is if I don’t put the work behind it all of this it’s a waste of time. I’ve put the work in to learn and master the business side of music. So now that the only artist I manage is me I feel like Jay-Z in 2003 “imma show you how to do this son”

A Journey Into The Mind and Personal Life of the Rapper Akuu

09/17/2022 by chaari_

Who are you? Back-story and childhood

My name is Ravine better known by Akuu, I come from a small town in Southern Oregon where there isn’t a whole lot going on. My father accidentally killed my mother when I was two, and he spent 10 years in prison for it, so I was raised by my Aunt Crystal. I went through hell because of that woman, so a lot of my childhood was traumatizing.

Your biggest influence in hip hop?

Hip-Hop is great because there are so many subgenres that can be created from it. Tech N9ne does an amazing job of mixing Rock, Rap, and Opera. A lot of artists from the Midwest in general have a unique sound that resonates deeply with me.

Your first release and what leads you to the game?

Music is like any other form of art, you’re able to capture emotions and express how you feel. People have a hard time saying hard things, that’s where I come in. I’m not afraid to say what needs to be said, and I believe I can capitalize on being that person in the industry. This is actually the main reason I started making music. Everyone deserves to hear the truth, even if it hurts.

What kind of emotions do you try to give the person listening?

Whatever emotion I feel when I first listen to the instrumental. The key is to exaggerate the emotion to its fullest extent to convey your message. In order for the music to be relatable, you need to make sure the emotional impact hits the listeners hard.

What is your creative process like?

There are two ways I typically go about it. Sometimes I like to be alone, by myself in solitude. Other times I like to surround myself with friends and capture their feedback as I write. My friends also lighten my mood. A lot of times we end up smoking weed and goofing off, but we eventually get things done.

Where do you see yourself in the future with this career?

I can see myself being famous enough in the distant future. I don’t concern myself with mass amounts of fame. I just want to make a difference in the world, so even if I only ever reach a few million people I will be content. Although, I think there’s a high chance I may accidentally release that one song that just goes insanely viral overnight. An artist can dream right?

If not rap, what else would you be doing right now?

Actually, I am already doing what I love for a career outside of making music. I am a Data Analyst, I wanted to work with Google at some point, but my current job makes me pretty happy. I suppose if I didn’t need to pay bills, I would pursue a career in video game development.

How much have you grown as an artist?

Since my start back in 2012, I’ve made leaps and bounds to strive for success. At first, I was just doing small garage shows at my friend’s house. Then I made my way to performing as an opener at local shows and bars. I did a few of my own headlines before I took a break for a few years, and I had a few thousand followers on social media. The real growth has come from this past year. Life hit hard, I learned a ton of lessons from my past failures in music, and I put it all on the page. The problem with being an artist is that you are never fully satisfied with your own work. We are our own critics, and because of that I still feel I have a long way to go before perfecting my craft.

How are you different from others in this game?

You have to be willing to think outside of the box. People want uniqueness now more than ever, and most artists just want to play things safe. Not me, a few years back I decided to start learning Japanese. I fell in love with the language and culture. Honestly, Japanese music made me fall in love with music all over again. It gave me the idea to try and express myself in a foreign language. The potential to connect with other people on the opposite side of the planet is an exciting feeling. I know there are a lot of bilingual artists out there, but you don’t see many American performers switch languages during a song, especially not an English/Japanese combination. Bottom line is, that I have been prepaid my entire life for this moment and I don’t have to pretend to be someone else to succeed.

How did K3NCH Grow as an Artist?

K3NCH: ”I’ve grown in a lot of different ways as an artist. The first is doing shows across the country and building necessary business relationships. Also networking across all social media platforms. And winning 2 awards at the North American Music Awards (NAMAS) for my state was a blessing and didn’t expect it. I went from only getting a couple of hundred plays to thousands. Doing shows in multiple cities and states, including Georgia, Florida, Missouri, Michigan, and California just to name a few. From being featured in Hip-hop magazine placements to radio shows and interviews. This year alone has been huge and the hard work is starting to pay off. ”

”The emotions I try to give to the listeners is pretty much just a vibe. Life is stressful and sometimes we can get in our heads, I want my music to help others in ways it’s helped me. I’m pretty versatile and make different types of music for just about any mood.”

 

KENCH shows how much he’s attached too much to the streets and the whole hip-hop culture. The reason why he is so attracted to music is that not only is it like therapy for him, but he finds it amazing to be able to create and manipulate sounds in unique and different ways. And people can connect to you through it.

Where Do You See Yourself in the Future?

”I see myself being very successful in this field because of how seriously I take it. This isn’t just a hobby to me, this is something I plan to feed generations off of. And if music didn’t work, I would still be an entrepreneur/businessman. Probably still doing photography, videography, acting, and real estate. Either way, failure is not an option.”

K3NCH is a rapper who shaped his style and build his career by himself. A rapper who started from the bottom and he’s sure of what he’s doing. KENCH is a rapper to watch in the future!

Kylie Jenner & Travis Scott Won’t Be Getting Married This December, Despite Rumours: Report

07/25/2022 by chaari_

Online sleuths found a wedding registry full of lavish items under “Cactus Jack” and “Mother Goose,” though sources are denying that it belongs to the parents of two.

The latest rumours online have been targeted toward Kylie Jenner and Travis Scott, who – according to gossip – are believed to be getting married sometime in the near future.

As Page Six notes, the gossip began to swirl after the youngest member of reality TV’s most controversial family stepped out wearing white for a dinner date with her siblings at Craig’s earlier this week, suspecting that perhaps they were hosting some sort of bridal shower.

Not long after, online sleuths uncovered a wedding registry under the names “Cactus Jack” (Scott’s record label) and “Mother Goose” (presumed to be Jenner) with a set ceremony date of December 10, 2022.

It’s worth noting that the registry list contains some seriously lavish items that a billionaire would likely ask for, including a Daum Crystal Jardin du Cactus sculpture, costing more than $36K.

 

On top of the sources’ confirmation, big sister Kourtney K also addressed the rapidly turning rumour mill earlier this week, shutting down speculation that her eldest son, Mason Disick, has been spreading information about their family online.

To any and all “news” outlets who use that false account as a source, you know better. Stop using it for the benefit of your slow news day please and thank you. And to the person relentlessly pretending to be Mason, ultra ultra ultra creepy.

07/25/2022 by chaari_

On June 24, Chris Brown released his tenth studio album ‘’Breezy”, which was announced nearly two years ago. The new album marks the artist’s first solo effort since 2019’s Indigo.

The album consists of 24 tracks and features Lil Baby, Jack Harlow, Lil Durk, Fivio Foreign, Lil Wayne, and More.

Since the announcement of the project, Chris Brown recorded hundreds of tracks for the project before narrowing it down to the final 24. “I be having so many songs. I think for this actual project, I had almost 250 songs,” he said. “I was like, ‘Yeah, we gotta scale it down and figure out what we gonna do. … Too many of the songs sound in the same frequency. It’s like a show. You got the beginning, the climax, and then the end. But I still want to give my audience at least two or three of the same and not release a whole album where every song sounds the same.” He told Big Boy.

Chris Brown Talking About The Lack Of Support for the project.

10 days after releasing his album, Chris Brown took to an Instagram story to express his frustration with the lack of media support for his tenth studio album.

Chris Brown conducted an extensive promotional run before releasing Breezy. But the album performed below Brown’s expectations.

Despite the album hitting number three on the Billboard 200 and debuting with 73,125 sales, it was low for Chris’ standards.

Brown was looking for more motivation and support from the media that was looking after him all the time. “Chris Brown gets in trouble, the whole world is on it. Chris drops an album, crickets,” he said.

As for the negative stories, Chris Brown may be referring to the rape allegations against him, which he has denied.

06/26/2021 by Julz Mancini

 

 

As Britney Spears’ fans paid close attention to her social media, conversations began trending over her conservatorship that has been in place for since 2008. After remaining silent over the matter for quite some time, the pop icon finally broke her silence at a hearing where she described her traumatizing experiences pertaining to the control and emotional turmoil caused by her father Jamie Spears that has affected her life greatly. 

During the hearing Britney could be heard stating, “I haven’t done anything in the world to deserve this treatment. It’s not okay to force me to do anything I don’t want to do.” The emotion could be heard in her voice as she pleaded with the court. She also mentioned that she has done extensive research on conservatorships where judges have terminated them and she wants the same to happen for her.

Soon after the hearing, Spears took to Instagram finally expressing herself to her fans. An outpour of love and support could be seen in the comments following the heartfelt post. It wasn’t long after she spoke out that she entered a private jet with her boyfriend Sam Asghari and headed to Maui. The romantic getaway was exactly what the songstress needed. 

Witnesses stated that she appeared to be happy and filled with smiles and laughter as her and Sam spent quality time by the pool. It appeared as if a weight was lifted after finally having the opportunity to tell her side of the story. Let’s hope the judge grants Britney her request!
