R.D. Peoples

Artist Information

Biography

R.D. Peoples has a magnetic personality with a larger than life sound. He is constantly evolving in all aspects of his talents. His sheer dedication to self-improvement is what places the highly eccentric entertainer on the "standout" level. Dealing primarily in Hip Hop and Electronic Dance Music, he is easily one of the most dynamic figures in the industry.

R.D.P. uses an incredibly wide array of voices and characters in his music. To new listeners; he is often mistaken for a musical group instead of a being a solo artist. His music can come across as dark; but as one moves from one track to the next-they begin to realize that this massively complex and deep entertainer has an uncanny knack for deceptive conceptualization.

He is influenced by observation and imagination; and draws his creativity simply from his interests. It may seem apparent for any musician of any genre, but it becomes an exclusive point of intrigue when you consider what holds his interests.

The 'left-field' role-playing style provided from R.D. Peoples has attracted listeners of all demographics. He delivers an exciting and energetic live performance that few Hip Hop artists can actually match, and lives an alluring '100% Given : 100% of the Time' lifestyle.

R.D. Peoples is everywhere with his music. He looks at music as 'Entertainment for the People'; and with that perspective he uses each track or mix as another opportunity to expose the best and worst of Humanity. He often delivers hidden messages and references of pop culture, astro- and theoretical physics, and is deeply rooted into the ever burgeoning so-called "nerd" community. Listeners and observers can expect more diversity in the first 20 minutes from him than many provide throughout their entire career.

Welcome to his Universe; you won't find any Trouble...

  "R.D. Peoples' strength is easily his lyricism and voiceplay. Vocals can be dark and even creepy at times. The Electronic tracks are dope and definitely stand out, even if they are not for everyone. He throws himself into brilliant and seemingly fantasy scenarios."

  I started remixing any and every instrumental I could find. At first I was pushing everything I recorded in people’s faces. It took a while for me to realize what was missing; which was a standout sound and an outstanding delivery. I was told often that my lyrics were there but execution and delivery needed work. Once I realized what that meant I played with the idea of multiple personalities. That enabled me to create and utilize different styles and forms of delivery. I put out 5 thematic projects in 4 months time; each encasing a different personality trait – and therefore different voices and perspectives. At that point, people started to really give a listen. But it wasn’t until I started the ‘For the People’ series that tracks were being played around the world...
