Featured artist: Trell-Da-Don - Show-N-Out Ont the Road2Success
The best advice given to me as an artist is, Chase your dreams because they’re not going to chase you.
Upcoming underground artist Trell-Da-Don just answered some questions. Checkout the interview below and share if you like it.
Thanks for your time. How did you decide to become an artist?
Trell-Da-Don: I started off beating on the dresser for my older brother and his boys and that lead to me actually seeing them write and construct songs; which made me a writer today.
What about concerts? Do you play live?
Ive actually performed once in my entire carreer and that was in Austin Texas opening for one of my older cousin in laws.
Best punchline you ever wrote?
My struggle motivated me to want the better of life
What are you currently working on? Did you release something in the past?
Im currently working on my solo mixtape, ”SPOKEN’-Genuine Story of A Dreamer. Yes, I released a mixtape back in 2011 when SOKG was first constructed; it was called IN Our Own Zone Vol.1, A group mixtape. I have also leaked songs from a fully recorded album, Calwaukee, Feut. HennLoc DaGreat. And lots more coming.
Last but not least: Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
No I wouldnt sign a record deal with a major label. As far as i would go is distribution and probably 15-20% publishing. I believe in independent success though.
Shoutouts and credits to the fam?
I wanna give a shoutout to my team #SOKG for having my back every step of the way, because there would not be any ShowOutKiings, ShowOutKweens, or ShowOutKiids if it werent for them.
I wanna give a shoutout to all my fans thats holding us up on Reverb, My family, The whole Milwaukee, The Bay Area, and my Significant other, Lady Ceciee.
