Russ

"I just hate the victim mentality."

An advance is a loan, it is not free money for being talented.

“They’re what got me hooked on hip-hop.”

"For a genre that’s so infatuated with wealth, y’all be doing short-term shit…"

There's really another plaque.

Russ, Mistah F.A.B., Dumbfoundead and more dish out free game.

"I wrote, produced, mixed, mastered, and engineered one billion streams on Spotify."

There is a difference between abusing drugs and "CHOOSING to publicly glorify it," according to Russ.

There’s a good reason you've never heard about Russ’ music on Twitter.

"I mean, if it rewards talent, feel me, I would be the biggest artist in the entire fucking world."

"Look at how people try and play the legends. Why?"

And Kevin Gates has a single with PnB Rock that has real potential.

"I made sure that I built up leverage."

"You must evolve your craft."

After dropping two hit singles, Russ finally releases his debut album. But what's really hiding under that wolf's clothing?

The wait ends soon for an album years in the making.
