Today we’d like to introduce you to Warlord Colossus.
Warlord, can you briefly walk us through your story – how you started and how you got to where you are today.
Essentially I started by simply hearing my friends freestyle, being around that creative energy and hearing words on beats and the flow, and really being too scared at first but eventually getting drunk one party and getting on a beat myself and life was never the same. I’ts Been a little under four years so far and we are just now reaching around 20,000 monthly listeners on Spotify and it’s been an insane ride.
Great, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?
Not at all, have lost so many friends and relationships, been crossed and stabbed in the back I warn anyone in the music game to protect yourself at all costs and always have a contract whenever you work with anyone new. And the come up life as an artist is a hard one you have to truly love what you do and remember this is a marathon, not a sprint. Enjoy the process and the journey or there’s really no point to this and spread love and uplift others on your way up. Kindness goes so far in a game like this.
Please tell us about your music.
Our group is known as Nephilim Gang, we actually have artists all over the world. We specialize in shadow rap, mosh pit music. We are all very proud of each other and our progress with millions of streams and counting. We take pride in the image and sound we bring. A professional sound and image can take your career to the next level.
Is there a characteristic or quality that you feel is essential to success?
I feel like its very important to simply be yourself and don’t let the negativity of others or this game affect your mindset. Be mentally unmovable, do not let anyone or anything take the vision away. My biggest secret is every night before bed imagining yourself in the position you wish to be in as if you’re already there. See it so clearly and speak of it so courageously that you make others around you feel it. You have to vision, say what you’re going to do, then simply go do it.
