heard. I’m going to make it my job to make sure my record gets played in the club. I’m gonna stay busy. I’m not getting a deal and sitting back, getting the check and going to buy a car. Go buy this, that, and the other. Be sitting back, waiting to do a show, waiting for the label to drop my next single. No, I’m going to put out my own single. The labels have no choice but to kick in on it. That’s what separates me from the rest of these guys. I’ve seen it all before. I know what they do. They get comfortable and think the label is supposed to do everything for them. I’m the total opposite. What is your style of music? I know you ain’t heard a lot of my music; I would call it astronaut music. Its out of this universe, my style is so crazy. One minute I can be on Southern Atlanta rap and then I take over here, over there. I can tell a story, I can go to Africa, collaborate with Sierra Leone. I can go to Mexico, collaborate with reggaeton or whatever. If I had to classify it, I would call it astronaut music because it’s out of space. How much street influence is in the music? I’m not the type of guy to glorify all the negative things that take place in the street. Of course I speak about it because sometimes that’s the only way to reach certain people. I tell people about both sides of the game. I got cousins that are in the penitentiary right now, I got guys I know, went to school with that’s in prison, ain’t never getting out. I try to tell everybody the game from both aspects. I would classify it as 100% street music. Anything else you want to say? I really want to salute OZONE. I want to salute the whole ATL, DJs, radio personalities, anybody who supported me, who been supporting me since day one. Anybody who believed in me, anyone who kept it 100 percent G with me. I want you to report to the top with me immediately. That’s where we going, baby, straight to the top. //

Rocko 10 Ways I Do Me

A-1 talk game

I can have a conversation with anyone. I have an A-1 talk game, it’s through the roof.

Hustle Hard with this real estate game

I grind hard. I’ma hustlemaniac. I do the real estate. I got a trucking company. Gotta have other investments besides music.

Steak from Morton’s

I like to eat. I gotta have a steak from Morton’s Steakhouse on Peachtree at least three times a week.

Get up and collect checks from the mailbox everyday

I get up everyday and I gotta check the mailbox for checks. You never know when they’re coming.

I keep it turned up. Never turn it down.

I keep it turned up to the maximum. My radio, it goes up to 50, I keep it at 50. I’m swagtastic. My swag, I keep it turned up. I make music for the streets and everyone who likes it, keeps it turned up. Go ham.

My ol’ skool cost more than your new skool

I collect ol’ skool cars. I love ‘em, man.

Alloys on whips. No more chrome.

We don’t ride chrome anymore, that’s old news. Its alloys, man. Get your swag up.

Swag Season Everyday

Shoes match the hats, hats match the bags. The necklace match the watch. The ear match the ring.

Chill with the family/kids

I chill with fam, the kids. Gotta spend Q.T.
