Perception of things I've seen or been through but use a lot of street terminology<br />

just to keep the music dressed and but more so to engage the listener, make em<br />

think a little vs some basic bubble gum rap. Far as the push goes I would describe<br />

that as on and off early on but since I dropped my last project "The Merch Mover"<br />

Hosted by Samhoody , we haven't let up since March 2016 with promotion and<br />

flooding the blogs , in doing so I've gotten the attention of a handful of notable<br />

A&R's and Different music Moguls.<br />

Q : Give our readers and quick history lesson about yourself and how you got<br />

your start music wise?<br />

ROZAY 5IVE: History is kinda hard to sum up quickly but I Was born and raised on the<br />

South Side of Chicago in The Roseland Rosemoor area. By 4th Grade i moved to<br />

Minnesota where My mother and I Re United with my Father . 3yrs After that I lost<br />

my father to Drugs And Alcohol. Fast Forward to 10th grade where I first started<br />

writing raps and battle rapping in house parties. I Went on to graduate high school<br />

and recorded my first song that summer of 2007. In late 2012 I was introduced by<br />

Some Solid 4 Corner Hustlaz (Well Known Gang From Chicago) to Samhoody Who is<br />

a Notable and successful Music Dj and Promotion Specialist/Manager and from there<br />

he has coached me on the ins and outs of the music industry and given me game on<br />

how and why I must remain consistent. Which brings us to current times where I have<br />

added beat making to my Resume' and I'm resting on one of my biggest pieces of<br />

music "Bagchasers 2 The Free Fox Edition" Coming Early 2017.<br />

<strong>OHM</strong>: Where are you from and who were some of your musical influences coming<br />

up that may have shaped the way that you get off?<br />

ROZAY 5IVE: I'm from The South Side of Chicago as I stated earlier The Wild 100s To<br />

be exact some of my musical influences were Julez Santana , Dipset, 2pac , Nas, Eric<br />

B and Rakim , Method Man was my fathers favorite rapper so I liked him a lot as well<br />

as AZ Common and can't forget Chief Bump J.<br />

<strong>OHM</strong>: What makes you different from the rest of the rappers coming out of<br />

Chicago?<br />

A :I would say I'm different because I actually understand that it's rare to be signed<br />

or Receive any type of deal through just merely putting out video after video which I<br />

believe a lot of people in my city suffer from. I would also say the Fact that I know I<br />

have to invest in myself being beats promotion advertisement and so forth.I would<br />

say my approach to my musical content sets me apart , the raps I present are far from<br />

basic and will probably take a second and third listen to gather everything.Lastly The<br />

Fact that I have a up and coming clothing line structured around my Music Group<br />

that is flourishing should set me apart from the hobby rappers. Be on the lookout for<br />

Beats by me as well.<br />

Q : what is your current project or single that you are pushing at the moment<br />

and do you have any new projects coming here in the future that we should be<br />

looking out for?<br />

ROZAY 5IVE: Current project is Titled "The Merch Mover " Out now on Spinrilla I also<br />

have a Album out on Iaptv.Com Labeled The Product Of The 100s . I also have a<br />

Single I have been pushing Called "And What" which has a movie like visual on<br />

YouTube as well. New Projects are "BagChasers 2 The Free Fox Edition" and And A<br />

Compilation that hasn't been named with 80's and 90's Beats.<br />
