Interview with T.R.U.B. Chef
By: Where It Begins
Q. What was the inspiration behind your song “She Fell in Love”?
A. I wanted to make this song creative, so I looked at it as if she fell in love with me. So, I flipped the concept of it so that it can be looked at from a hustler’s point of view that she’s a gold digger, or the fact that she’s just digging me.
Q. What does the name T.R.U.B. Chef mean?
A. T.R.U.B. stands for “Truth Real Unique Blessed”. The chef part comes in because I treat my music personal and perfect just like a chef treats his food. I am working on the cooking part though, lol.
Q. With you being in the industry from 11 years old until now. What avenues would you give to artists now to put themselves on a platform?
A. The platform that you need to get on right now in this time is social media. Start with the simple ones that you can do yourself like YouTube, which is especially helpful if you don’t have the money right now. Just invest in yourself the best way that you can now. Work your way up from there by letting people take your brand seriously. Don’t be afraid to ask questions of people of importance.
Q. What is the music scene like in Memphis right now?
A. It’s coming up better, but there’s still not enough unity within the rap community.
