"ON THE GRIND"

When it comes to hip-hop this rapper is no newbie. We take you into a mind of a young harlem artist on the grind as he takes us through his trials & tribulations to get in the rap game. Just like any other artist on the come up TRON has dreams of making it big some day.

WHATS UP TRON? INTRODUCE YOURSELF TO THE WORLD

Whats good yall??? I go by the name of Tron. Up & Coming artist out of harlem bout to make it happen and bring the game back home. feel me?

DEFINATELY, SO TELL US ABOUT SOME OF YOUR INFLUENCES AND WHEN YOU DISCOVERED YOU WANTED TO BE A EMCEE..

Well I started rapping around the age of 15 or 16. I remember i had just came back from living down south for a year. My brothers was f**ckin

NO CURSES..

Oh my fault. Make a long story short my brothers are basically the reason why im doing what im doing..

INTERESTING. SO WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT THE DECLINE IN RECORD SALES AND WHAT DO YOU THINK WE COULD DO TO SOLVE SUCH ISSUES?

There's nothing good about the decline in record sales but you gotta understand the digital market is getting bigger & bigger by the day. Ringtones, Myspace, Youtube its taking over and as an artist on the come up you have to come up with a marketing plan to take advantage of that...

SO WHAT DO YOU HAVE PLANNED?
Well i cant let all the cookies out the jar yet...but i mean i already have my own blog (thetronexperience.blogspot.com) where people can come everyday and see things like this..its like a page strictly for my fans...

DO YOU THINK THIS WILL HELP ALOT OF ARTISTS?

I think so cause in this day of time nobodys going out to buy CD's and people wanna know the personal life of the artist. If i post something about me everyday a loyal fan will see that and fuck with me cause he'll feel like he's apart of me..plus you can advertise videos, downloads, album leaks, mixtape leaks, etc.

SO I SEE YOU REALLY GOT YOUR CAREER ALL PLANNED OUT

(LAUGHS) yea you can say that. i mean im just a person thats always in deep thought..i was try to think about my next move

DEFINATELY UNDERSTAND. SO EXPLAIN THE MUSIC IN HARLEM...

In harlem its mainly alot of dance records. We labeled our type of music "feel good music". its alot of artists on the come up such as myself.

COOL. SO WHAT DO YOU HAVE IN STORE FOR THE NEAR FUTURE?

I'm working on a mixtape called "This Is Me Vol. 1". I'm actually looking for a DJ to host that as we speak. its going to be crazy.
Its going to be posted on my blog as a free download...im looking to drop it around my birthday..

IF I'M INTERESTED IN LISTENING TO SOME OF YOUR MUSIC HOW CAN PEOPLE REACH YOU?

Definately hit the blog up....(thetronexperience.blogspot.com) you could also hit up the myspace....www.myspace.com/trondagod
im all over (laughs)

ANY SHOUTS OUT BEFORE YOU GO??

Yea, shout out to everybody on the grind in harlem...shout out to my son also..he's my inspiration....my team HNV. slim dollars, money murph, peso, the whole click...also make sure yall check out my new single "6 in the morning" thats in heavy affect. Just shout out to everybody who hit me up and tell me my music is good...i appreciate that...i really do...
