FUCK PREME SZN BIM BOY RECORDS

PREME is an upcoming DJ, rapper, and producer from Chicago, Illinois. Having done shows for Cole Bennet’s Lyrical Lemonade and making noise within the Chicago producer scene, Preme has allowed us to delve deeper into what drives him as an artist, and who he is as an individual. Check it out below:

Who is PREME? What concepts and themes do you think defines you as an artist?

I feel like me being a multi talented artist is what my main theme is. I like to show that it’s okay to be versatile and show how strong you are than most people. Also I really preach the living raps thing. I feel like that’s important because there are people who experience the same stuff and want to experience the same stuff u want to experience in the future like you as well.

Who, or what, do you believe were behind these themes and concepts? What/who were the experiences or people that shaped these ideologies in you?

I feel like me liking a lot of artist and being around a lot of artist my whole life who either tell stories or tell there experiences in beautiful ways have rubbed off on me.

Since my family found out I rap I’ve been more comfortable being myself and expressing myself in a more ways because they here and know what I’m going through. Music makes my concepts make sense to the world and helps me figure a lot of things out.

Do these ideologies hold a certain weight to the type of music you make? If so, how so? If not, how do you differentiate your ideologies from the type of music you make?

I feel like me having fun and like just going with the flow makes my music very important now. People take music too serious now of days it’s like a raw when you should just do what you love and have fun.

Also sonically-wise, I love adding different outlandish sounds or like other genre sounds such as EDM sounds or like dance sounds because a lot of my Influence is from that crazy 2010-2012 era where EDM super popping. Plus my family raised me off A LOT of different music so I try to not keep it basic most of the time.

If you could collaborate with any artist, from any genre, who would it be?

A:

Pretty hard questions because I love a lot of artist but I really want to collab with Travis Scott. With Travis you get the full package and it always shows.

Like you get to also work with Mike Dean and Travis shows his producer side then he, like, used auto tune like a beast and has some very savvy bars as well.

I also wanna work with Chance because duh that’s my favorite rapper haha.

What do you feel is the best track you have ever produced?

I don’t think I’ve even touched my best track for the people yet I keep growing and growing every track I drop and keep on trying to not only please the people but please the fan in me.

But my personal fav right now would be between Everyday, Stop Wasting Time, and Incomplete.

Q:
Where do you want to see yourself in 5 years as an artist? Maybe under a label or going strong solo?

I feel like with me I will be a thriving solo independent artist (unless a situation comes where I need a label) messing up the game like my fav (Chance) did.

I feel like being independent is more important than people think it’s owning what you create and keeping that spark in your career so you can be the best.

Also in 5 years I WILL be at a lot of festivals, probably work with half of my favorite rappers, and at least one or two Grammys on my momma shelf. If not, since my DJing career is skyrocketing as well I would want to be a big DJ doing solo sets at festivals and DJing for a touring artist while still making music.

If you weren’t creating music, as of this moment, what do you think you would be doing?

I feel like my life would be incomplete without music. I would probably tryna play sports or something like that. Like I said early I dj as well so I feel like a lot of things I’m doing right now are meant to be no matter if I get doubt or not. But that’s hard question because music is literally my life, hopefully if it wasn’t i wouldn’t be no lame.

Q:
What advice would you give to anyone coming up as an aspiring artist, same as you? Any tips or experiences that you could share?

KEEP GOING THERE MORE IN STORE.

I always say this. You can feel your destiny In your heart every time cause God don’t play. If you feel in your heart and have faith that this is what you are suppose to be doing and this is the reason you walk this way.

Don’t ever stop for nobody and don’t stop for yourself because the opportunities are endless. I’m 18 years old and I already dj’d a festival and done A TON of shows for big artist.

The ride isn’t always over when you say it’s over and you are going to have doubt but it’s your job to keep creating and keep it moving to show how you really coming.

Q:
Anything you want us to promote specifically?

Right now I’m dropping My March Madness tracks. but I had to take a break because too much was going on. But those are still dropping and the promo for my first real mixtape. Die On Top (D.O.T) which is coming out soon.

I’ve been working on it for years.

Also expect music from my friends like 7200, HL, Creative Mansion, and my lovely camp Bim Boyz! I have a video for Stop Wasting Time coming soon shot by Dreamer Data and a lot of more cool stuff coming to fruition in the future that everyone will like!

Tromac Pineapple is an upcoming producer and curator making is mark within the DMV area. Through the answering of these automated questions, we’ll give you an inside look into his creative process and the influences behind his reasoning for becoming a full fledged artist in this industry.

Check it out below!:

Who is Tromac Pineapple? What are the themes and experiences that formed the curator that you have become today?

I'm just a dude from Laurel, a town on the tip of PG county, who found out music was the best thing ever. In high school, I met one of my closest friends who goes by Vlad, a fellow artist also from Laurel. He introduced me to music on a surface level when he showed me his songs he had on his old YouTube channel. from that, I started making beats, then rapping, eventually DJing.

What do you think is the most important aspect of creating music? What are personally your favorite parts of the process?

An important aspect of creating music to me is knowing what your doing, not necessarily what you want to make or where you're going with it, but knowing what how to do what you're about to do. personally I love watching Youtube videos of people playing with hardware that I own or intend to buy to give myself an idea of whats already possible so I can feel motivated to try the impossible.

My favorite parts of making music is the unexpected, like when you and your manz making beats and you hand the controls over to him and he do some wild shit to the sample or lay down some wild keys or hard ass kicks or some shit. or when you do something completely different from what you were trying to do and it hits even harder than what you thought.

Love it.

What do you think differs you as an artist from your peers in this industry? What relationships have you made or experiences that you’ve gone through that have molded you differently?

Me and my friends just be having fun with it.

The thing about the scene where I’m at, Baltimore, D.C, etcetera, everyone is really good at what they do, so when we combine and collab its even more amazing, that’s the beauty.

You have good ideas? Just do it. A lot of people in the industry, from my understanding, are like make believe, living like semi-false lives because they have to fit in a standard or appease a certain group of people and shit. I don’t do that and I don’t think i will.

I do what i want, who gon' beat me up?

yall remember how long january was in 2018? shit feels like yesterday but here we are. these are my updated events for the rest of the month starting tomorrow. got my new laptop (thank yall again❤) so im gonna have some new beats and remixes for these joints so dont miss out! this january feels like its going by at normal speed to me. wbu?

What artist would you like to collaborate with the most?

Honestly I would die if the legend Lil Wayne were to ever hop on one of my beats like that’s my favorite rapper. But if I could have a room full of artists, I would love to sit down with like Pharrell, Monte Booker, have like Kelela or somebody in there for some vocals, Childish Gambino too, and then just bring in my homies cus' they some of the most talented people in the world to be honest.

What do you feel is the best track you’ve ever produced?

i couldn't tell you, I change my opinion on that every month, not even just when i make new shit but I will listen to some of my older beats and be like damn this is it.

But if I had to pick right now, i'd say I went off on my Drip Too Hard remix, which is on my Soundcloud right now titled "Drippy".

If you weren’t a musician, what do you think you’d be doing at this point in your life?

I probably would have moved to New York or something by now. Just because. Probably be working some random $13 an hour job so I could pay rent with some random roommates. I'd probably be doing graphic design and photography still.

Take us through the day in the life of Tromac. What do you get up to daily?

Are there days where you need to take a break from it all?

Well I work, because I ain't shit yet.

But let's describe an off day, a weekend. Lets say its a Friday, I wake up around 9 or 10 depending on if I did anything the night before, freshen up, shower, get dressed all that good stuff and head out. Usually I have plans already like smoking with a friend or going somewhere to make beats or something.

Literally all i do is make beats, spark gas, and do like creative shit.

Might go see a movie or get some food with a friend or something. At night I’m either doing a show or at a homies show or some event but if not then I might be at the homies crib sparking or making beats or both of course. I started going to the gym more often lately, I find that I enjoy writing while working out, like on the treadmill, I tend to write verses on my phone.

Its like working the body which makes the mind work more or something? I’m not sure. but most of the time I am at home sleep.

Lastly, is there any advice you’d give anyone who wants to start the process of becoming an artist/producer or curator in any form?

Wild out, bust down, do that shit, spend that bread, cop that laptop or midi controller or whatever, no regrets don’t look back, just dive in do the shit and make it good.

Don’t let anyone make you feel bad for following dreams or having ideas.

And fuck school, that shit is wack and cost mad bread and niggas be down bad afterwards and that’s dead, unless you're good at it and have dreams that can be obtained easier with schooling. in that case, bust down.

probably in a black tee shirt. i do what i want. @3SIDEmusic #3SIDE Contact ▶ TromacPineapple@gmail.com
