RudySamA

RudySamA is a songwriter/producer/engineer with roots in hip hop but with a long range of genres under his belt of mastery. He began his curiosity for music with a different allies (sqwrt nastie) before evolving into his current incarnation. From cloud rap to boom bap, from indie rock to experimental new wave he refuses to be stuck in a box. Dabbling in the world of cell phone app based battle rap he soon grew the confidence to pursue music full time instead of only having fun with it. His debut as RudySamA came in 2018 with an e.p called “love you”. This cloud rap early project was filled with both conscious word play and catchy lyrics.  His follow up was a collection of older tracks that he released with his aforementioned alias “Sqwrt Nastie” and other names he went by such as “Droop Coofee/El Zombie Droop” and “Pope Galactic” . This project was called “Relics” and caught the attention of the Southern California underground hip hop scene. The following year he dropped “Love You 2” the sequel to his debut project. This also was well received and was the first album that he produced all of the instrumentals that were featured. In June of 2019 he announced a surprise project in the works saying it was going to be a different genre from his work thus far. In July of that same year a press release was put out saying he would drop his first indie rock e.p titled “Summer Seduction” . As the year went on he dropped a final single called “mush” which details how he fell in love with one of his best friends and chose to drift away because she couldn’t love him back. 2020 only seen four singles dropped. “Clubcool” , a song about a Reddit chat room, “make through it through this” , a song about using peace of mind to get through the covid 19 pandemic, “coolin” , a song about not stressing and “Franklin Richards” a song that is left up to interpretation. For years now his highly anticipated third e.p known as “love you three” has been teased. With lyrics being even more cryptic than ever RudySamA dropped one song per month from July 2021 through February 2024. With in this time span his most ambitious project titled “My flowers” was released in September of 2022. This album gave him his most streamed song to date “Victoria”. From 2022-2023 he continued to drop songs every month on Spotify. Love you 3 was teased but his life took an unexpected turn. In December of 2023 his mother was diagnosed with stage four cancer. He proceeded to erase most his music, including love you 2, summer seduction, and My flowers along with singles that where going to be a part of love you 3.  The majority of his erased catalog still lives on SoundCloud. The entirety of my flowers is on YouTube as a full album video. On March 12th Rudy’s mother passed away. This was a heavy loss for him that came eerily close to the one year anniversary of his grandfathers passing (from his moms side). Since than Rudy has focused on his personal life more than anything else. Taking a step back from music for the time being, RudySamA still leaks random songs on YouTube and instagram sporadically. Clues have been left for those who are willing to follow the rabbit down its hole. The message is clear. The aura is the same.
