    It's ironic how he talks about how him and bugus studied every single interview, article, etc. in order to learn the game. Now here I am, studying every single Russ interview, article, and video to learn the game.

    I honestly feel as if this was Russ' best interview. Anybody that hates on him needs to watch this interview and fully understand where he came from and just how persistent and motivated he is. I cannot wait for this next album to drop in the next month or two!! There is not many genuine people like Russ in today's world of rap and hip-hop. Keep it up man!

      Where he came from? He makes it seem like he grew up in the trap in Atlanta. He grew up in rich Atlanta suburbs and went to a AAAAA high school. Lets keep it real. Like why can't he just say that? Can't deny his talent tho.

    This is the kind of interviewer that gets the best out of Russ. Not those radio shows who keep on bullying him hence, the interview doesn't turn out as an interview but would have some kind of heated argument at the end. Thank you for this. It's refreshing ♥️

    You don’t have to be a musician or a athlete or a actor to be the man or the shit . Find what you love to do , study it and learn the game whatever it might be like being a real estate agent or being a plumber or cooking food . Russ is showing just follow your goal and don’t give a fuck about anyone and mostly importantly be the best at what you do !!

    The day that my beautiful dark fantasy came out I went to Best Buy in the morning as soon as it opened I asked a worker there if they had the money released album on the shelf he had no idea what I was talking about and being 18 at the time and super into music I was trippin that the Best Buy work had no idea of the album dropping. Still one of the greatest albums of all time.

    Great interview. For real. Great interviewer too.
    Editing suggestion: please level the volume of the "beeps" over curse words, to be a smooth, non ear piercing sound. Lol the volume is like 10db's higher than the rest of the audio. Also the beep needs to have a 1 or 2 millisecond volume fade in so that it doesn't click hella loud at the beginning of the sound clip.
    Just a friendly suggestion in order to better the listener's experience.

    The one thing I like most about Russ is that he’s loyal as hack. Like everything he says about his “day ones” are so true.
    It’s 2020 and I’m watching this for the first time, but every music video I’ve ever watched of his always concluded with credits saying “Edger...” or whatever he’s name is, and this was before this video and I’d always wonder “who is this Edger dude...”👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

    I'm also an independent artist, and it's been a time since I started
    So I have to tell any one who's just starting, don't look for an outcome do music for yourself first and then for the people
    I produce, mix , master , write and sing/rap my music
    I started dropping weekly this year and I think I like it, and imma keep doing it , it's therapy for me now.
    All love everyone

    He says he listened to Get Rich or Die Tryin` when he was 7, but he was born on September 26, 1992, so he was 10 when the tape dropped.
    Not saying that it is much of a difference if he was 7 or 10, it just bothers me.

    My first song I heard from Russ was his first big hit which was "Losing Control". I thought to myself hmm who tf is this guy? Good voice nice little vibe but I didn't pay it no mind. Till I heard it again on Pandora and I liked it by this point. So I did some homework and looked at his earlier albums and I just totally stuck with this dude. He's a true definition of ground up artist. From songs like Corleon to I'm between, to Tsunami, to Sore Losers, it's ridiculous. He has the melody, the bars, the confidence, the drive and motivation to go further in this game. And let's be honest, despite his not so gangster or manly appearance, he's a real dude. People hate saying he's short sith a man bun...ok?? So...what he suppose to look like? ? Same envy happen with Eminem when people realized he was a real 1. Also with the backing from Dre. Look at Russ...by the time he's in his 30s. .he's going to go so far. Big ups to Russ.

    @brittany5019 6 років тому +3

    I liked him I did and I was rooting for him. I've been into the law of attraction for 3 years now and it has turned my life around for the better. So I definetly get a lot of what he says. But I also know people and have a gift for reading behind people's words and seeing thru ; to the real person inside. He is very fragile and sensitive. Which is cool it's nothin to hate. But the facade and front he puts up to mask it the best he can is what people are trying to express but aren't finding the right words- instead they call him "corny" -- which in all fairness it is. He has the manifestation thing down. Except he hasn't come close to winning the battle - with himself. Lastly, the way he treated nadeska was when I stopped rooting for him. Anyone can say what they want but what really went down was his ego came in and fucked the energy up and her day. She was hurt from the first attack. She had every right to be. The way he converses with people while patting himself is a no from me. I really believe the LOA isn't gonna take him much farther until he conquers his owns demons inside. aka ego AND BECOMING OKAY AND TRUE TO HIMSELF. NO RUSS YOU ARENT A GANGSTA. THE HOOD WILL NEVER BE YOUR CORE GROUP AUDIENCE.NO RUSS THAT ISNT YOURE REAL ACCENT. YES RUSS I KNOW YOU CHANGED UR WHOLE APPEARANCE TO TRY TO FIT THE MOLD -THATS NOT WHO U REALLY ARE. Be yourself man. Thank you and goodnight!!!! Peace!

      Dan W lets be real, nadeska is whack, and she’s part of the reason why Everyday struggle flopped 🤷🏾‍♂️. She was prob having a bad day before Russ said anything 😂😂
