~FashionRousseau is sure to impress hiphop
fans with quick witted and imagery driven bars or black-though stream of
conscious bars, contrasting often with sullen lulling, fluid
vocal experimentation, and polyrhythmic and multisyllabic
aggression.
Sp_ceCowboy's production is genre bending typically combining old school
samples with electronic, house, and trap elements
~ Raised in Alexandria, Virginia,
Rousseau grew up on classical and jazz influences, years prior to
Rap, with instruction in both genres, and received years of classical
piano instruction.
~FashionRousseau is a multifaceted artist
with an eclectic array of influences as he consumed soul and gospel music
in his mother's home with Jazz and classical in his Dad's home. At school he
studied advanced music theory while participating in various bands as
guitarist, vocalist, and pianist thus rounding out his early musical
experiences.
~After a brief stint in Singing and
Songwriting with intent to attack the pop direction, an Eighth
Grade Fashion Rousseau turned to Hiphop after winning a local Poetry
competition. While honing his Rap skills, after high school, he attended
Binghamton University in pursuit of a Law education before being driven to
pursue his vision of Rap artistry in the HipHop genre with his full
commitment. He relocated from Alexandria to Richmond in search of a
deeper creative atmosphere, reconnecting with his earlier influences from his
first complete Rap project. There he has proactively learned music Production
dedicating all of his previous influences towards that endeavor, utilizing his
earlier musical training as a guide. Releasing a vastly unheard mixtape
under the Pen Name "Rosegoldvinyl," he turned towards concept and
writing. A year and a half later, with new perspective and
insight, Rousseau self produced, self scribed and delivered the
featureless Backwhen&Clublove.This currently streaming LP lead
him into shows, small independent tours, and a step up the rung to a more
public facing persona. Rousseau currently resides and operates from
Richmond, Virginia penning and producing his third LP.
