“Is he hip hop? Is he alternative? Is he Rock-rap? Well, for the sake of leaving the labels alone, we’ll just call Chi-Town’s Kidd Russell and artist and leave it at that. “

~urb.com

Over the last 2 years after meeting my now full time producer Matt Jenkins we had the concept that if you just make great music people will come no matter what genre you make.  Labels want you to be rap or rock or alternative or pop or one specific genre because its easy to market an artist like that.  Matt and I had a concept if we can root our music in hip hop but genre jump maybe we can hit different markets and in turn grab fans from several different demographics similar to kid rock or what Lil Wayne is attempting to do. Well in urbs write up about my career and music they called me just “an artist0”. This is actually what we are striving for.  I’d love to be able to rock a song with Jack Johnson and then turn around and rock a track with Common and then maybe with Linkin Park because I enjoy all these different types of music as well.  Its not the route I suggest every one do but its the route me and Matt have chosen…well for now lol.  Anyways enjoy the article shout out to Travis Glave for putting it together for me I really appreciate it. Love you all thanks for continued support of my career

keep dreaming

Sorry haven’t posted much music lately.  We are reworking our makerting efforts and ready to take over this fall. DJ John Blaze and I are finishing up the 13 track Free Release titled RUDY RUETTIGER MUSIC.  My music is always a mixture of party anthems to make you forget about your daily stress, deep stories to remind you of whats important in life and occasionally a couple fight songs to amp you up in times of need.  Anyways look forward to sharing with you. If you click this picture you can get a sample of whats on there. Here is a picture of the album cover designed by Joel Allen of www.suplexmedia.com he also did the roh website so give him a shout on twitter to applaud his work ttp://www.twitter.com/suplexjoel). 

Love to get your opinion the album cover.  We will put the mixtape up for free to download at www.kiddrussell.bandcamp.com 

Anyways back to the lab as always love you guys and thanks for your support.  Make sure to click on facebook fan page on the right side of this website

    We want to play your town the best way to help us do that is download Backyard Heroes off ITUNES. We just need to sell 200+ downloads of Backyard Heroes via ITUNES!  BY doing this we can do our first national radio campaign and then we can tour behind it to a town near you. Would that be great…..

    Well what a way to start off the week.  We got picked as Chicago artist of the week by Billy Dec the chicago legend himself.  I respect for this guy in more ways than one. He is also one of the best at representing Chicago and its culture.  Follow him at twitter.com/billydec.  If you guys don’t know who billy dec is he owns rockit, rockit wrigley and the best spot in chicago UNDERGround where you see legends like Jaimie Foxx, Common, Black Eyed Peas Hanging out.  Look for Billy also to have a special guest appearence in the next kidd russell video.  Thanks to his crew as well they are cool as shit.  Thanks

    Hey everyone
     
    My new album BACKYARD HEROES is on itunes.  Its been well received by critics including entertainment weekly who thought “she feels like home” could have huge POP potential.  But mostly this is an amazing fun summertime album. If you played a sport growing up you’ll love the heartfelt song “Backyard Heroes.”  “She Feels Like HOme” is the perfect song to sip a glass of wine with your significant other.”  The rest are fun songs/stories about different aspects of life. You can download it on ITUNES link below. Physical CDs will  be available in 2 weeks off my website www.kiddrussell.tumblr.com
     
    Thank you and I appreciate your support
