NEW RORY & MAL | Episode 25 | FT. RUSS
...and get comfortable! Rory & Mal sit down with rapper Russ off the release of his album 'Chomp 2', starting off speaking on his previous run in with Mal, which leads into a conversation about his opinion on the media vs. the artist. Russ rehashes the ‘Everyday Struggle’ interview that he believes started the media hate for him, and the timeline of accompanying situations where he offended people (10:28), and he addresses how being anti-industry affects his career (14:50). Rory asks Russ if maybe he is the wrong messenger to push his message of independence to a black led culture (23:00). Mal inquired about Russ not dating women in the industry just for a look (29:30), and Russ opens up about his current love life and his outlook on marriage.
Finally, they get into his new album ‘Chomp 2’, (53:00), discussing what Russ was trying to accomplish with this album, and going toe to toe with some of the best rappers on his features. Rory asks Russ about his opinion on SoundCloud rappers and SoundCloud not evolving when it had the chance (1:13:00). They start on a conversation about the negatives of independence and why it’s not for everyone (1:24:50). Russ talks about finding his latest artist off Tik-Tok (1:51:30), and how keeping his morals about independence while signing artists is important to him. As they wrap up, Rory asks Russ how he sees himself aging in HipHop (2:11:20), and they end off with Russ speaking on issues he’s had with other rappers (2:43:00).

I never understood how people viewed him as corny though. He just showed confidence because he literally produces, and writes his own music. A lot of the top artists in the industry today can’t say that. We weren’t created to be the same. Definitely respect your opinion though bro

@@LiLMessi1000 Why wouldn't be emotional about his art?! People thought he was an easy target and tried to attack him so they got wha they was asking for. That is not arrogant but if people do not see your worth and view the effort you put in and at the same time try to make you look stupid, he had all the right to defend himself. Mind you, he never attacked someone who did not talk shit 1st. No action - no reaction, it's that simple!

incredible interview with tons of valuable info for independent artists and all creatives. russ continues to grow. a man of music AND endless inspiration!!! by the way the book he references at 2:05:20 is Mark Manson's "The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*CK!" - _“We have evolved to always live with a certain degree of dissatisfaction and insecurity, because it’s the mildly dissatisfied and insecure creature that’s going to do the most work to innovate and survive.”_ bless!!!!!

I've been a Russ fan for almost 5 years now, and this the same reason I became a fan, he speaks from a point of "Bet On Yourself". I remember that corny era of people hating on him. Idk how you can hate on him preaching about independence, and ownership. He dropped a lot of gems on this pod. Besides all that the music 🔥🔥🔥 as well. Chomp 2 is phenomenal. My favorite record "Salute" 🔥🔥🔥

Listened to this on the podcast app but I had to come here just to say how much I enjoyed this one guys!! Was very fun to listen to and not awkward at all!! :)
This was the first Rory and mal episode I watched from front to back. Say what y'all want about Russ but this man is impossible not to l listen too in long format and not get some jewels. This man is a wise man. Shout out Russ
Great Interview! Mal and Rory got something cookin' fasho, I see the vision wit it. Russ is dope, been listening to bruh since '15 (Too Many), Chomp 2 is much needed in today's music Meta. Lyricism that matters.
I'm in my 30s and Love yall podcast and content. Feel like myself if I had a different life...doing interviews, asking questions and keeping it real. Keep up the great work 🍻🚬😉👍🏿
I want to say thank you Russ!!! These jewels are motivation to keep pushing forward whether music, clothing, or business. I'm going to keep grinding and not sell out

Russ my dude, you don't need anyone to validate you. What makes you a great person in life isnt everything you did for validity but everything you did without it. Took me a lifetime and i can thank my dad for that one bc he never validated my efforts but Im happy of what i built without it. Be graceful and love your energy brodie!
Would love for y’all guys to go on wine & weed podcast man!
I saw Russ live when he was just on SoundCloud….best concert I have been to hands down. Wish I could work with him one day 📸
I’m currently 45 min in and these convos are 🔥🔥🔥🔥.. I fuck with Rory and mal heavy. Always dope content but I gotta get back with episode lol
Truly appreciate y’all for this episode! Russ always be spitting mad game and has helped me so much over the years to manifest and invest in myself and the music and can’t thanks this man enough! One of the realest, can’t wait to personally meet and thank you one day! Your a real one and a true Legend!

Very dope interview, would like a same kinda interview with Wale. Connection between russ & rory is nuts, conversation on a higher level
Hell yea. This is the definition of greatness
Dope ass interview. Russ and Wale have the same chip on their shoulder.
Really enjoyed this episode n def need russ on again next time longer let it go shit was so on point
🔥all 3 of yall 👏
Great interview 💯
I'm just glad russ is getting more and more love.
I see a lot of growth and self awareness in Russ. I know couple years back he came off as arrogant when he had that interview with Everyday Struggle but now he ain’t looking for that validity, he fully understands his audience and caters to them. Solid interview from Rory and Mal
Great episode and conversation 🔥
