Artist Spotlight: Rosewood Bape

Since the release of debut visual back in May, Rosewood Bape‘s “Taxi” has taken New England by storm; taking over every cookout, locker room, snapchat possible.

What I truly appreciate about his grind is that he made sure to make a name for himself locally before taking his talents elsewhere. Without relying on a cosign from a blog or a DJ, Bape made a name for himself organically – performing at numerous shows and cookouts. Not to mention his effective usage of social media through memes, hashtags, and emojis.

Now, everyone knows his name.

Here we are seven months later and the single continues to kill the club scene. Model/Video Vixen Ana Montana was seen vibing to the record recently while hosting NAGA.

Popular Atlanta producer Metro Boomin‘ was also seen dabbin’ to the record effortlessly during a meet and greet held at consignment store, Laced, back in October:

As long as Rosewood Bape continues to use the formula he’s been using with the team he has, I have faith this record will reach national success over the next year.
