Featured artist: Prince Treble the Rebel - Rare form outta the DMV
Below is a short interview with the upcoming underground artist Prince Treble the Rebel.
How did you decide to become an artist?
Prince Treble the Rebel: Well my mom use to rap when she was younger, so I guess my love for music rub off on me & my sister. So I started off rapping in the cafeteria in school wit friends in 1st grade, and since then everybody told me keep on going.
The world is not going give you anything, so you gotta go take it.
What about concerts? Do you play live?
Yes, I play live and I’ve have done three concerts, but mostly open mics and club events.
Best punchline you ever wrote?
lord sesshomaru to the bullshit, cuz i dont deal wit b.s., wit 47 ronin wonderin if imma get checked.
What are you currently working on? Did you release something in the past?
Right now I’m working on a mixtape called ”Trilladelphia” which I plan on releasing August 2014, no official date though. I have released plenty of mixtapes in the past but I was promoting and marketing myself and didnt know what I was doing, but that’s going change this time around.
Last but not least: Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
yea i would but no less then 2 mill on a deal w/ creative freedom but i rather be independent. Pros probably be better distribution i guess, Cons they can shelf you, they feel like you need them,
