  • Episode 111 | ILL RUCKUS - Hip Hop Group from the DMV
    Today's guest is Rap Group ILL RUCKUS


    Bio

    The culture of Rap and Hip-Hop has expanded over the years in both positive and negative ways. To its credit, it has provided a voice to the downtrodden and disenfranchised, allowing people to share their struggles and triumphs. Others however have used the art form to glorify violence and materialism. Styles vary wildly but for the men of Ill Ruckus, their beats, rhymes, and wordplay are all about bringing the positive vibes back to Hip-Hop, one song at a time.



    Ill Ruckus got its start before it even knew it existed as its core members were friends since childhood. Though the number of people in the group has fluctuated since it was officially founded in 1999, it’s presently working comfortably as a trio. Sidd, Mr. Smiff, and Valdeast have enough years and shared experiences behind themselves that they don’t just consider themselves a musical trio; they’re a family. Growing up in and still based out of Lexington Park, Maryland, the area itself is known for its long standing cultural roots, and strong military presence. It’s the kind of place that can instill strong, humble values into you while still exposing you to some of life’s harsh struggles.



    It’s these struggles though that have pushed Ill Ruckus together and made them one of the hottest up and coming groups in the area. It helps that all three of the members have their own individual style that’s been cultivated over years of living life and writing about it. Sidd brings to the table his musical studies, being an accomplished saxophonist and pianist. Though he’s normally a quiet person, music allows him to express himself. Mr. Smiff also brings with him his own musically gifted ear, combined with a good deal of life experience from his strong community roots. Valdeast has the benefit of being a devoted family man, one who’s as humble and loyal as he is passionate about music. That family devotion helps serve as a constant reminder to Ill Ruckus of the positive impact music can have, and the audience that needs empowering music in their lives.



    Given their distinct personalities and tastes, it’s no surprise that the trio would be inspired by a number of different Rap & Hip-Hop acts including such legendary East Coast rappers as Biggie Smalls, Wu-Tang Clan, Redman, Mobb Deep, and Nas, along with the massively influential West Coaster Tupac and the also highly respected, Bone Thugs-n-Harmony. It’s because of all these styles and interests coming together, that even though Ill Ruckus can be compared to some of their influences like the Wu-Tang Clan, they’ve also drawn comparisons to the late great Big L, Styles P, G-Unit, and Boot Camp Clik.



    Through years of tremendous hard work and dedication both in and out of the recording studio, Ill Ruckus is finally starting to make waves in the industry. Their debut EP has been a long time coming, but they’ve already landed featured placements on several Coast 2 Coast Mixtapes including Next Up Vol. 200 & 206 as well as Hottest In Maryland: Mixtape Vol. 2. Their homegrown website, www.seasonedvetts.com is home to two of the completed tracks, “I’m Sick” and “Spazz On ‘Em” which is complete with its own music video. Combined with their successful live performances, Ill Ruckus’ music is speaking for itself in terms of its quality and message.



    This is just a small step towards bigger things for Ill Ruckus as the trio continues to build its reputation amongst fans and other musicians alike. Sidd, Valdeast, and Mr. Smiff are entertainers in the truest sense in that they feel it’s their job and goal to use their God given talents and abilities to positively affect the lives of others. Their music is independent in every way; it comes directly from them and they’re taking every effort they can to push their music forward from Maryland to the rest of the world. The only reason their music exists as it is right now is because they’ve never given up on it or their prospective audience. Their performances and recordings continue to grow better as a means to bring better music to the people willing to love and support independent artists.



    Being entrepreneurs as well as entertainers, Ill Ruckus has big plans for the future. As their music continues to take hold amongst audiences they plan to use those sales to create their own studio. This would allow them to continue to be completely independent but utilize even better equipment and create even stronger sounding releases. This would be an exciting addition to the already growing list of responsibilities the trio handles for themselves. Not only do they craft their own songs but they also handle the production, promotion, event planning and networking with other bands and area businesses for gigs. It’s not an easy list of jobs, but it’s all in the name of music and all for trying to bring something positive and wonderful to audiences.



    Ill Ruckus won’t rest until their music can reach the ears of the world and bring to them the positive vibes of struggle and triumph that Rap and Hip-Hop can convey so well. Through years of hard living, raising families, and perfecting their musical craft, Sidd, Valdeast, and Mr. Smiff are in the best position yet to accomplish their goals. Behind the strength of material like “I’m Sick” and “Spazz On ‘Em” Ill Ruckus has big things on the way and it’s their hope that their music can find a way to entertain and empower you.

  • Episode 110 | Music Artist Janelle Nucum
    Today's guest is Music Artist Janelle Nucum

    Bio

    Fifteen-year old Singer, Songwriter, Musician, Actress and Model, Janelle Nucum, began her passion for music at the age of two, then started performing on stage professionally at the age of eight.

    Her devotion to music derived from the influence of her family loving music and grew stronger as she got older. So strong that she couldn’t imagine life without it.

    As her stage time grew more frequent, she began expanding her presence in other areas of the entertainment world through theater and live productions, modeling and commercial print ads. During the process, she managed to land a lead role in a short film and various TV commercials.

    She dedicated over five years of training in both singing and acting to enhance her skill and talent all the while attending various workshops to increase her knowledge and experience overall. In addition to her efforts to further her career, she joined a national singing and acting competition and won both a placement as a Junior Commercial Print Model and Junior Singer of the Year.

    Soon after, she signed independently to a record label, Storm Central, LLC who offered her global distribution via Ingrooves Music Group/Universal Music Group Distribution. Shortly thereafter, she began recording her debut single “Pages” which she co-wrote late last year with National Billboard Charting, Recording Artist Christine Storm. Janelle hopes to reach an audience of all ages with her song and to inspire them to reach for their dreams. She believes that if you work hard enough and never give up, you can accomplish anything that you want in life.

    You can find Janelle’s single “Pages” on iTunes, Spotify, Google Play, Amazon Music, Apple Music, Tidal, iHeartRadio, Rhapsody and more and in over 600 online retailers worldwide.

  • Episode 109 | Jamil Apostol
    Today's guest is Jamil Apostol

    Bio
    The mysteries of life and music intersected on a dusty Nevada road when Jamil Apostol began to play strings some eight years ago. Now, the Tennessee-born, but Reno-raised artist is writing and creating to capture timelessness in our ever-changing existence.

    Apostol is a fresh, new voice dawning in an age of quarrel and hypocrisy. His drive as a singer, songwriter, producer and multi-instrumentalist comes from a passion he has for learning and connecting with others through creativity. His modern storytelling groove with a traditional Americana folk sound invites listeners from all walks of life to tune in and sing-along; from intimate campfires to large festivals, vibrant nightclubs and the humblest of front porches.

    “My purpose,” he says, “is to help the masses have a higher sense of consciousness and a greater sense of self-realization; to find out who you really are deep down inside and find out what is our common core.”

    Since Apostol’s first studio album titled “On The Road,” with his seven piece Reno-based band The Bonfire Set, he has kept an eye to the wide expanse as the fuel to his vision.



    Now he’s embarking on a new project called Jamil Apostol and The Good Wills. Their first album, “Off the Beaten Path,” is set to debut 2018.

    The 10-song album is a manifestation of the adventures and lessons learned since leaving Reno and The Bonfire Set in 2015, and traveling the country alongside the homeless, a Monk, other seekers, mystics and nomads.

    “I am breaking through the illusion of what is put upon us, whether it be gender roles, societal roles or upbringing. We ‘gotta step back and after a while ask ourselves who am I? I feel like this is what people work for - it’s what we’re trying to preserve and maintain - and I feel like music helps us to transcend all these borders.”

    In the spirit of a true artist, his poetic perspective thrives on pure experience and the interconnectedness of life.

  • Episode 108 | Trap Recording Artist Ponzo Houdini
    Today's Guest is Trap Recording Artist Ponzo Houdini

    Bio

    Raised in the Jefferson Projects in Buffalo, New York Trap recording artist Ponzo Houdini Launched his career in 2007. “My first song entitled,”You A Lame.”At the time Myspace was our main source of social media. My song was generating many plays
    A&R from Slip N Slide records ‘King V’ reached out to me. He reached out to me saying he respected my music and for me to send him some tracks so that he could pursue a recording deal for me. I sent him a few songs, and ‘You A Lame’ was included. I never heard from him again, but in 2008 Trina a Slip N Slide recording artist released a song called ‘Lame’ and it’s the same song, but with a few words placed differently.”

    His official single released in 2015 entitled ‘Daddy Wit Da Caddy’ which released on WorldStar.com and more. He’s toured and worked with artists like Future, OJ Da
    Juiceman, Skippa Da Flippa, 2 Milly and Rich The Kid as well as Zaytoven and O’Mega Red.

    Music wasn’t persistently a direct path for Ponzo, in fact, life started off very troubling. “My parents separated when I was younger due to my mothers struggle with drug addiction.My father, grandmother, and aunt primarily raised my brother and me.”
    In school, I was on the honor roll until high school. At 14 I started hanging out in the streets, selling weed.From there I started selling crack cocaine - the same substance that changed my mother’s life in a negative way.”

    In 2008 he served one year in the county jail which was unfortunatley followed by an- other charge in 2011. He served 2 years in the state prison system followed by 2 years on parole. “I came home focused on changing my life around, but parole was making it complicated to do so. I started my entertainment label ‘Cake Boss Life Entertainment.’”

    He went on the run in 2014 where he put out his first Mixtape ‘Wanted’ which released on datpiff.com. He followed that with his album ‘Controlled Substance’ which released on iTunes, Spotify, Google Play and Tidal. Later that same year after saving enough money he returned to New York and surrendered himself for the parole violation.
    He served his remaining time and set out to continue to pursue his goals.

    He was gifted enough to secure a deal with Tunde Balogun with Atlantic Records. Balogun said, “Although his music was good enough he didn’t have the fanbase for the type of deal he was pursuing.” Since Then the Independent artist has worked tirelessly to gain a positive, conscious fan base.
