No Malice knows he & Pusha T ‘could touch a lot of people’

Something I have learned through the years of being an older sibling in my family is this: you’re always a celebrity to someone. My little brother has been known to copy so many things that I do, including an affinity for Christian rap.

He got his first big break with the prestigious New York Times, and eventually moved on to ESPN, and […]

The Rapzilla 2020 Freshman list has had the honor of a couple of debut interviews this round. We continue the pattern with our lists’ only producer this year. Arrow was born for beats, or so it seems for this 17-year-old, self-taught producer, who researched and finessed his own way into learning this craft. Tell us a little bit about yourself. I started listening to music about four or five years ago. I got into it from TobyMac and NF. Then from there, I found out about people like Lecrae and Andy Mineo.

If you read the headline, you’d think, “Well one of these is not like the other.” That conclusion would perfectly sum up Adriel Cruz f.k.a. as SKRIP. He appeared on the Survival of the Artist Podcast where he spoke about having his own recording studio to record, produce, and create at age 12.
