RND Freeman & Jupleci Share New Collaborative Project “Picasso” (Official Music Video)
RND Freeman & Jupleci have just recently shared their new collaborative project, the music video Picasso,” after having dropped “Phony” and ”Dead Weight” these past months on IG TV. The emerging power duo, both Runaway Generation signees, are displaying their meticulous rap and intricate lyricism with the laid back “Picasso.” They have been building a strong following with the high quality tracks released so far. Kicking off with a relaxed confidence, “Picasso” comes to demonstrate the unorthodox style of both RND Freeman and Jupleci, as the Canadian rappers once again expose their natural chemistry while we hope they continue collaborating in the future.
In total alignment with their previous releases, “Picasso” is an original Hip-Hop act transcending all boundaries and offering visionary innovations to the genre, exposing a fusion of urban subgenres and microgenres, with atmospheric soundscapes building the flawless sonic structure for both Jupleci and RND Freeman to layer their dominating flows from start to finish.
RND Freeman was born and raised in Ottawa,Canada, and is of Cameroonian descent. His upbringing in Canada through the lens of a first generation immigrated family, Freeman quickly developed an early sense of underdog. Raised in a home in which African music was very prevalent, Freeman says the first artist he personally connected to was Bob Marley. RND FReeman describes his art as a flower child bleeding his soul on the beat. Much of Freeman’s music carries revolutionary undertones but he insists on not classifying himself as a revolutionary but as part of the revolution. His sound is influenced by the likes of Wiz Khalifa, ASAP Rocky, Young Thug, Lil Uzi and Future.
Jupleci was born and raised in Montreal with a full Haitian background. RnB music was introduced to him at a very young age. As much as he was attached to RnB, hip hop/rap is something he was heavily influenced by. In his teenage years he grew up listening to 50 cent, Kanye West, 2pac and the list goes on. Today Jupleci considers his style as a mixture of R&B mixed with hip hop (R&Bass). He’s currently inspired by the likes of hip hop artists 6lack, Roddy Rich and Ty Dolla Sign.
