We recently had the chance to connect with A-Dub White and have shared our conversation below.
Hi A-Dub, thank you so much for taking time out of your busy day to share your story, experiences and insights with our readers. Let’s jump right in with an interesting one: What is something outside of work that is bringing you joy lately?
Outside of work, what brings me the most joy is my family. Watching my daughter, nieces, and nephews grow up has been such a rewarding experience. It’s also given me the realization that my generation is stepping into the role of being the elders… the ones responsible for carrying the torch forward and keeping our family connected.”
Can you briefly introduce yourself and share what makes you or your brand unique?
My name is Andrew White, but I go by A-Dub White in the music world. I’m a Christian hip-hop and R&B artist from South Florida, and my mission is to make music that’s both relatable and uplifting—something people can ride to, vibe with, and at the same time be encouraged by.
I’ve been making music since I was 10 years old, and over the years I’ve grown from just recording for fun into building a full brand and message that’s centered around positivity and my faith in Jesus Christ. What makes me unique is that I’m not afraid to step outside of the box. I like to take risks with my sound—whether it’s switching genres, experimenting with flows, or telling stories in ways people don’t usually expect from Christian music.
Right now, I’m working on my upcoming project called Hiatus Road. It’s really a journey through life’s ups, downs, detours, and the moments where you have to trust God to guide you forward. For me, it’s not just about putting out songs—it’s about creating experiences that connect with people on a deeper level.
At the end of the day, my story is about growth, faith, and authenticity. I want my music to remind people that they’re not alone in what they go through, and that with God there’s always hope and a new road ahead
Thanks for sharing that. Would love to go back in time and hear about how your past might have impacted who you are today. Who taught you the most about work?
I’d say my biggest lessons about work came from my family. My mom taught me dedication—she’d work her main job during the day, then stay up late creating and crafting at night. My dad showed me what hustle looks like, installing car speakers at the swap shop while I tagged along until the drive-in movies started. Watching both of them grind taught me early that passion and perseverance go hand in hand.
When my dad passed while I was a teen, my Uncle Woody stepped in and became a major influence. He got me my first job and showed me what it means to take care of business and stay responsible. Those lessons are still with me today. They shaped how I move as an artist—putting my heart into my craft, staying consistent, and building something that lasts.
Was there ever a time you almost gave up?
Man, I don’t think there’s enough time to talk about all the moments I’ve almost given up. There’ve been seasons where I questioned myself—comparing my journey to others, wondering why my songs weren’t getting the streams or attention I hoped for. I’ve even got full albums sitting on the shelf because I felt like they weren’t good enough.
But every time I get close to throwing in the towel, God has a way of reminding me why I do this. It might be a random DM from someone saying a song helped them through a rough time, or somebody stopping me in person just to say they’ve been inspired by my music. Moments like that bring me back to center and remind me this calling is bigger than numbers or recognition. It’s about purpose, impact, and using the gift God gave me to reach people. That’s what keeps me going
I think our readers would appreciate hearing more about your values and what you think matters in life and career, etc. So our next question is along those lines. Whose ideas do you rely on most that aren’t your own?
Honestly, I’d have to say God. You know the saying, “You plan, God laughs.” That’s real for me. I pray every day and just try to focus on what I can control—growing as an artist and staying true to the purpose He’s given me. Lately, I’ve been in a real transformative season—doing more singing, more mixing, more vocal producing, and really learning how to structure songs differently. I believe that’s God shaping me into a better artist, not just a rapper.
Okay, so let’s keep going with one more question that means a lot to us: What is the story you hope people tell about you when you’re gone?
I just hope people remember me as a good person—a good father, a good friend, and someone who was always there when people needed me. I want them to say I could make them laugh even when they didn’t feel like it, that I was helpful, generous, and a man of my word. At the end of the day, that’s what really matters to me. Beyond the music, I just want to be remembered for the love, light, and integrity I tried to live by.
