 Hmm, you are now listening to the sounds of DJ Raji's himself every single Thursday we do this from 7 a.m. To 10 a.m The name of the game is hip-hop Thursday at the name of the show is white in the morning And my name is by Moses or it's by morning the social media platform So we have a first guest of the day for hip-hop Thursday and she goes by the name Ruby She's dropped an EP. She has visuals. She has a movie She has a lot going on for and she'll be performing next Thursday and next Sunday as well So Ruby there's a lot going on with your career right now But you can introduce yourself on camera for if I missed anything. Hi, my name is rude out by the sweet and spicy hummingbird You can find me on Instagram at our you don't be why you can check out my music on YouTube at our you don't be Why on SoundCloud are you? Don't be why are you don't be why yeah, what is the dot for? It's just like a separation between my two personalities So it's like who is someone else and then by is also someone else all right So rude out by maybe you can shed some light to that who is through now So like who is more of my subtle shy kind of side and being so Without even the whole music aspect of it just like genuinely how I am on a normal day because sometimes I have someone Sorry, so like people freak me out. I don't like different situations for me. I'm like just timid sometimes, you know, and then By is like my savage side. It's like now You know I come into my music and how I'm more free and open when I'm on a beat the side that reminds people don't take Rue for for for right. Yeah Don't take advantage of me You dropped your your debut EP. Yes As a film as a film. Yeah, not yet as a Like as a compilation. Yeah. Oh had copies or somewhere on streaming site. So as a film Why did you choose this way of dropping your music? So, you know people are more into visuals as opposed to I mean like guys are gonna listen to my project But then I feel like if you watch it, you can understand the story better because with the film it basically shows The whole story behind right the writing process. All right, but critics will say Ruby, what if I want to listen to your music in there in my ride? I can go to YouTube I can go on YouTube. Yeah, I know that I just needed you to be into it first You don't understand it and then now you can jump to it. Now you can jump to it. Yeah Alright, nice one. When are you going to be releasing it on streaming site? So it should have been next week, but now when I uploaded it the way was Coming up on Apple music. It's as Ruby like it didn't take my name as it is So like I'm finding it such an issue like and I don't want to change my name So like it ended up being on somebody else's Page because it was telling me more music from Ruby, but those were in my songs So I had to take it down. Apple music doesn't take punctuation marks. Yeah, so like I send them an email To distro kid. That's where I uploaded all my music so I can distribute it on all the sites And they had to get back to me though I saw there was an option for changing the artist name and also like adding the whole capital letter Thank the uppercase to my name Well, my verses are refusing. No, I don't know. Yeah, but they said it's possible But I just have to upgrade to the next level and since I literally just got it I have to wait for another week So that I can be able to upgrade to the next level. So in a week or till we are going to be having it on streaming site That's amazing. You have your video steady Which is I think 90 percent or 80 percent the reason I got to you for this Because people should not confuse you or mistake you for a rapper. You're not a rapper per se But on steady went really hard in this. Yeah, all right What is this side of Ruby that wraps so hard? Um, so I was just getting into rapping just to kind of grow as an artist, so I'm not The same from how I started because obviously like I know singing is amazing like I enjoy singing But then I also wanted to switch it up so that also my viewers and my listeners can be like, okay cool So she's she's coming through with some music or something new, you know, so that's why I got into Trap music so rather And it's also something that guys are really getting into so I was like, okay, let me try it because you know guys I like to be a wavy person like I'm going to you do I'm going to perform on Nice jazzy tunes I'm being you so but then I also have to make music for other people So that's why I decided to do something. There's this movement Ruby. Yeah, you've heard about it I don't know if you're part of it. It's called noon. I will be do you consider yourself a part of this movement or revolution of music? I guess I'd say that but like me and I hope it's just basically The new people who are coming up with alternative sounds as opposed to what can in music is necessarily supposed to sound like All right. Yeah, so you you consider yourself part of this moment. All right, wonderful. So I'd like to know If I was to take your point right now and check the music player. Yeah, will you listen into it locally? Locally I'm listening to a lot of Sitchangi a wave Blinky bill Janice each other in iraqi Valery Motoni baby, and And many more Check my samkla repose. I'm there. All right So maybe you can show them the title of the EP and I've watched the film But maybe you can take us through the whole concept So it's called hey there I Called it hey there because every time I'm talking to my guys on Instagram or any other social media platform like Lovely So it's just like hi, this is a side of me because basically the album pictures love vulnerability and divinity And so this EP first of all was even supposed to come out later on I have a I have a written Album already, but I felt like it was too Intimate in that it was about a friend that had lost nothing happened to her We just weren't friends anymore and guys notice because like everywhere I went there like oh my gosh Where is this person? Where's this person? I'm like there And it's like why like why are people in my business like this like leave me alone I know we're not friends at the moment So I did a whole project about it like basically talking about what happened and how I can relate it How other people can be able to possibly relate to my story. So before I show them that side of myself I wanted to like, you know, like before I'm too emotional. Let me just be a little bit emotional So we should look out for two emotional room. Yeah, that's true right there. Yeah You directed this particular film. Yes, I co-directed it with Jeremiah and who wrote the script so basically What I do when I'm working on videos I do the location scouting and set design and just like throwing in different ideas before lies and study I wrote the script and I Directed it and all that but then for hey there He wrote the script like even if we shared ideas and he was like, okay, so this side's gonna flow I was like, I just get it. Alright, is this something you do for other people as well? Something that I'm getting into so you just wait and see. Alright, something that people don't know about Ruby Ruby's a scholar as well Yeah, so you you're studying in college right now. Yes. What are you studying? I'm doing marketing. I'm concentrating on marketing Alright, is this something you chose by yourself or your parents expected for you? So I chose IVA international business administration because you know business It's like the safest routes at in high school. I was really good in business I was like, okay, let me do this and that's what I can decide what exactly I'm going to concentrate on is They're gonna be finance accounting marketing management or whatever So I found marketing to be the deal because when I was going around doing different gigs I got into I got infatuated by the idea that good the process behind Curating an event and how guys normally set it up in terms of set design So I was like, you know, I think I'm gonna do marketing. Why because I want to get into events All right, so Ruby thank God you're here today. Yeah, I love games. Do you love games as well?
