Around that time as well it was a lot of people of mine in and out of jail, so he wanted to have a song to motivate everyone and to let them know that when one person from the city wins, we all win. “Off the top, it ain’t never gone stop, young n* get that paper, make a Bill before you drop, we dem boyz that was dancing in the school parking lot, went from dreams to entities, making moves connecting dots.”

PROJECTS

Artist: John De Vinci| Album: More Than a Rapper | Release Date: November 07, 2020 | Genre: Hip-Hop/Rap

From “Wake Up” and It’s melodic & heavy drops to “A Dolla A Day” & It’s inspirational message and melodies, ‘More Than A Rapper” was a rollercoaster of emotions & anthems. With this being John de Vinci’s first EP, he wanted it to show his background & style of music. “MTAR” was created during the time John de Vinci was getting laid off from his job, so he created Fresh & Royal to keep income flowing in.

During his time creating and writing songs for “MTAR” de Vinci studied books like “Rich Dad Poor Dad” 50 cent’s “Hustle Harder-Hustle Smarter”, & more to polish his entrepreneurial skills alongside the Digital Design skills he’s always had since a kid. At that point, he was learning to be more than just a rapper rapping on a mic. He started understanding the business side of a lot of things & concentrating on different marketing techniques. So, you have a song like “Clockin’ In” that goes deeper into depth.
