With the latest release of his last project "Left The Past”, Rook has been dropping singles & conducting local rap platform interviews that's putting his career on the right track. It's unclear when the next time he will be releasing another project is but when speaking to him about his process and what's next for him he told us "Honestly I wanna take my time before I drop my next project, I wanna focus on quality vs quantity and make sure each piece of music I put out shows my growth. I already know the name of the next project and what the vibes are gonna be about but I wanna get my buzz going and really time this right on top of collabing with more artists around the country" When asked about his writing process and coming up with what he puts out "I keep close contacts with the people I came up with, you know my real circle who really struggled with me and have been through it all with me, that's where my inspiration really comes from, I've had to put myself back to where we were before and how it got us to where we are now. We brainstorm ideas for each other.
Do they rap as well? "Ya all of us Me,KD TROTTA, TGE, all of us,"
Your label is called still breathing, how did that come together? "Honestly it was a phrase we said a lot and still say, when we moved away from the environment we lived in we said we beat the statistics and we still breathing and there's a reason why we still here, RIP Aubrey, our brother who really motivated and started this whole movement, we just wanna finish what we started, we know he's watching over us, we know that god has a plan and we're gonna be more than great but give back to those in need so we can lessen people's pain and not have them go through what we went through".
How did Aubreys death affect you as a person? "Honestly, I'd be lying to you if I said I didn't cry my eyes out. I have no shame in admitting it. Like damn, he's really gone like that. As I wiped my tears, I wanted to go out and kill The person who was responsible. I prayed that if I didn't get him, Karma or the streets would. I honestly had a heart to heart with some of the ones who were around me and prevented me from acting out of anger. They knew where I was coming from and knew revenge clouded my mind. Cause my mind was set on doing it. At that point they mostly turned their lives around and I just got off probation out of that point and stayed out of trouble. But I'm glad they talked me down. It helped stay on the good path"
