Rp Tha Chozen 1 – “The Gump” #AUDIO #DL @rpthachozen1 @rebelgeniuscrew @sohhpr

RP Tha Chozen 1 drops his new single, “The Gump”, via Rebel Genius. It’s from his current album ‘The Harvest’ and features production by Carnegie & DJ S.O.M.

RP Tha Chozen 1 was born and raised in San Diego CA, an NFL hopeful whose dreams were cut down by a freak injury. With a need to communicate his frustration, RP took to writing. Under the guidance of his uncle he defined his voice, a dynamic lyrical style in which he combines intricate word playing lyricism with melodic chants. Soon after he found himself as an artist, RP signed to Rebel Genius Records. RP’s music continues to be his sound board for life, magnifying his desire to live righteously and his personal struggles with that pursuit.

RP Tha Chozen 1’s track entitled “The Gump” is inspired by the film Forrest Gump. Throughout his life RP has dealt with others telling him all the things he would never be able to accomplish. He took those limitations and used them as fuel to propel himself forward in life. Similar to that of Tom Hanks’ character Forrest Gump, RP continues to exceed the expectations of the doubtful and rise to the occasion.

RP Tha Chozen 1’s The Harvest is available now on all digital outlets.

D12 Discusses @Eminem Frustration Over “Infinite” Criticism @vladtv #VIDEO @D12

D12 has been with Eminem since the beginning of his career, which they spoke about during an exclusive interview with VladTV. The Detroit emcees shared stories about being in the studio while Em recorded his first project, “Infinite,” and Kuniva spoke specifically about working on track, “Open Mic.”

Speaking more about the album, the guys of D12 spoke about its poor reception, and Bizarre revealed that Eminem spoke about retiring if he didn’t place well at the Rap Olympics. The Detroit spitter ended up getting second place at the contest, and after Eminem called Bizarre with the news that he caught the attention of Dr. Dre, the D12 emcee told us that he quit his job.

D12 would later go on to work with Dr. Dre, whom the group said treated them like his own artists, which you can hear more about in the above clip.
