Bay Area hooks meet Midwest vibes on new single from Rose Gold Rackz 

COLUMBUS, OH – While many people have had major struggles over the past year during the global pandemic, some people have taken advantage of opportunities that have presented themselves during this crazy time. Rose Gold Rackz from Columbus, Ohio, is one such opportunistic entrepreneur. Instead of lamenting his losses, this enterprising artist decided to start a handful of new endeavors. He opened a smoke shop – starting the business from the ground up with nothing – and turned it into a $100,000 profit by the end of the year. He also dove headfirst into creating new music, with successful singles that have helped him grow an ever-widening fanbase over the past year. He’s celebrating that success with a new single called “We Win,” which is currently available across all streaming platforms.  

“It’s a song that’s all about celebrating success,” Rose Gold said. “Things are starting to look up for a lot of people and it’s time to celebrate. This song has a great Bay Area sound infused with Midwest roots. I grew up with that Bay Area West Coast sound, but I’ve adapted it and took my own slang and my own voice to it, with my own creative ad-libs and terminology. People can see that on this song, and they’ll see how I express myself through music is different than anyone else out there.” 

Rose Gold said he’s dedicated to bringing back bars and “real rap” to the culture of hip-hop. He’s been performing for more than 20 years, opening for artists such as Styles P, Kevin Gates, Jim Jones, Juelz Santana, Camron, The Jacka, Berner, Young Guns, Oschino & Sparks, and more. He has also been a part of the Big Heff Industry Tour in the Midwest and has performed in Tampa Mystics’ Industry’s Most Wanted tour, as well. 

Since Rose Gold was a product of the 80s and 90s, his first major influences were Sugar Hill Gang, Kurtis Blow, and Run DMC. As he got older, he grew toward more of a West Coast influence from artists such as E-40, Too Short, NWA and various other artists from the Sacramento area. But coming from the heart of the Midwest, his style is different than any of those legends with whom he grew up. Working with producers such as The Local Astronauts, Shawty Fresh, D Ruff on the Beat, and Akrite on The Track, has given him a diverse sound and style that is highly incomparable.  

“I’m a product of the 80s and 90s and I’m trying to bring that feeling back,” he said. “I want bars and real hustle music back on the table.” 

He’s expanded that influence to include multiple other entrepreneurial endeavors, including his label Ganjapreneur Music, which includes a clothing line and will soon begin offering Ganja-infused products like drinks and edibles. Rose Gold is also working on more music and plans to release a new single called “All She Want is Bandz” in mid-July, featuring female artist Miss Raindrop. He also has an album in development in conjunction with The Local Astronauts that should release later this year.
