Meet Rob Johnson

Today we’d like to introduce you to Rob Johnson.

Rob, can you briefly walk us through your story – how you started and how you got to where you are today.
Well, my mom’s been playing music around me for as longs as I can remember. So, I guess my love for it has always just been there, 
instinctively. My older brother and I used to write songs together when I was like 7. I just remember hearing everything from like, Jay Z, Trina, Sade, Eazy E, Michael Jackson (rest in peace), and stuff. This is kind of a loaded question. I just remember seeing everybody in high school freestyling in the morning, and I just always knew, I could do it. Y’Know? I started off with being in a rap group with my boys, called The Pharaoh$ in 2013. I remember recording of friends’ laptops with Apple headphones just dreaming to be in a studio. It’s really just been a wrap ever since. I’m nowhere near where I wanna be, but the journey is the fun part I guess.

Overall, has it been relatively smooth? If not, what were some of the struggles along the way?
F*ck no. But with everything, it just takes time. Being broke sucks. You lose a lot of people, on that path, when, I guess, perspectives shift. A lot of people will try and make you into their versions of how YOU are, and you just gotta stay focused. That’s probably the biggest thing to me.

Alright – so let’s talk business. Tell us about Rob The Hippie – what should we know?
My album, ALL IN MY FEELINGS, coming soon. I’m bringing all the vibes for anyone who loves to FEEL. Can’t wait to share this, and more music, with the world. This is only the beginning.

Any shoutouts? Who else deserves credit in this story – who has played a meaningful role?
Everyone. My mom. My brothers. Friends of A Friend. Colt Cassidy and Andy Ashley going crazy! My boy Sean Massey, his MART creations going crazy. The sun and the moon. I could go on forever. They just inspire me to be a better me.
