Whats going on Ecency I go by Runna its short for Darunna. Im a rapper from Atlanta but to be honest im way more than that. Im a father of 3, good man to my woman, a content creator, blogger, mentor to many ive met through all the time put into the music world, blogger, tattoo artist, digital designer, all around hustler I guess you could say. Now days you have to be a one man show in order to keep up in music. With that being said im very thankful for things to be the way they are, lord know the only way to become anyhting in life is to go out and take it. Any way im starting this blog for many reasons I have alot to say and the track aint always the place for it. This just seems like the best way I can get everything off my chest and channel it in a positive way instead of letting it all build up to one of the explosion of frustration and anger im so well know for. Dont get me wrong I love my life but being a white rapper/Man in todays world is not one of the easiest things to do. The whole being white stereo type like we all have it easy and want for nothing makes it that much harder to get anywhere in this industry. Though I do have alot of loyal fans, followers and supporters they are not easy to come by. See in my early years I didnt have no direction, sense of purpose and no parental guidance which in turn led me down a path of gangs, drugs, and violence which altimately landed me behind bars. This led to me breaking the heart of my grandmother who was the only person ever looked at me like I was more than just a waste of time that wasnt smart enough to ever accomplish anything. Wish I would of figured out she was right before throwing away so many years of my life. Miss that woman more than anybody could ever know. Its only been 3 months since Covid took her from me but how bad I miss her and wish I could see her again it feels like its been an Eternity in hell. If it wasnt for her I would of probably never been able to turn it around my kids there mother and her that is. I went from being a criminal with a bad outlook to a man with stability, goals, and dreams. They help set me on this path of constant grind and determination. Before I knew it I built a studio, released an unbeliveable amount of music which has now led to me hitting 400k streams just this past year with no plans of stoppin anytime soon. No matter how hard it seems I have to fight to get my foot in the door it couldnt compare to all the adversity ive already over come in my life thus far. Whats a lil bit of struggle or negative feedback when youve already overcame more than most people see in there whole lives. Not incluiding my childhood but thats a story for a therapist or atleast a different time.
