Upon meeting the young rap machine KC Ruskii, one will determine that he’s a survivor. It’s the way he automatically embraces good energy and how open and honest he is about his blessings in life. “I was homeless, sleeping where I could,” said the Midwest native, now southern transplant. “My music speaks on it,” he told me. But the first couple of tracks he debuted for me were turn up records, so I didn’t make the connection to his hardships right away. Around the third or fourth track he played me, “Hood Rich,” pops up and I immediately felt the vibe and said, “This is the one the people need to hear, early.” The youngin’ took the advice as the video is here.
What makes this song special is the way the verses explain the pain that he endured during his hardtimes. The video is the exclamation point on the message that so many young kids go through. Just the opening sequence where his friend’s Mom yells about not having the fund, food or patience to deal with another mouth to feed. That talk that needs to happen between the homies when you have to kick him out, after helping as much as they can, is so real for those that have been and are in that position…both sides.
Watch the video, feel his flow and be on the look out for more from this budding artist. Check his previous single with QC’s Lil Baby below.
