We are back with another episode of the Garden State Hip Hop Hour. Today we are joined by Orange native Juice Potter. Our host Rich Zeller digs deep into this artist’s unique persona.
Juice tells us that he is from Orange, New Jersey, but that Juice Potter is from Miami. We learned that there are two Juices, there is Juice, and there is Juice Potter. Juice Potter is the performer. He puts in the work, the studio time, and he’s the one on stage. He tells us that once the glasses go on, people know it’s time for Juice Potter. He gives us some background, explaining that he became Juice in 2013, a name that was given to him due to his association with lean. Potter came in 2017, after putting on a pair of the popular Harry Potter circular-rim glasses, in a gold finish of course.
He delves into his rapping journey, telling Rich that his music career began four years ago, “I saw that I had some talent and I just started falling in love with this shit, the process the studio the putting the work in…” the passion is clear in his voice. He tells us everything from the early doubts, to transitioning to the point where the studio feels like home. In these short four years, Juice has had some success, he opened up for A Boogie at Sherman Theater, his last project hit 100 thousand streams, and his music has reached seven different countries. He tells Rich, “I’m doing this shit to be remembered,” and the way he’s talking, we believe him.
Juice proves to be a well-rounded artist; he has his own clothing brand, Huskies Clothing, has his own juice named Sunset Tea, and told us he has a true passion for screenwriting. The rapper even has a pilot for a sitcom.
He talks us through his latest project, Project Potter, which released on October 21st. He gives us details about the creative process for this album, from inspiration to how long it took to put together. For this project, he put together the Sauce Challenge, a cash prize to whoever submits the best video listening to Sauce off his Project Potter album. He also gives us the inside scoop on another project he has in the works. Follow him on Instagram to stay up to date with his latest work and submit a video for the Sauce challenge.

Today we’re back at Sloppy Vinyl with episode 3 of the Garden State Hip Hop Hour. On this episode our host Rich Zeller is joined by Newark native Tynnelle.
The young rapper’s confidence is apparent less than a minute into the interview, “every song I put out is fire”. He doesn’t hesitate to say that he can body any rapper. He delves into his other endeavors, sharing with us that he’s also a ghostwriter for other artists, even though he would never hire a ghostwriter for himself.
Tynnelle gives us the inside scoop on the record label he created- The City’s Own. He describes it as a community, somewhere where artists and creatives have room for growth and development, but also keep their own brand.“I’m not trying to build a company, I’m reborn to build a franchise,” he says. He’s keeping the circle small for now but it’s definitely a project to keep your eye on.
He talks to us about Complicated, his latest project and first ever album, and how it hit 100k streams. He tells us how he put a lot of thought and effort into the album, sharing with us that he was broke but still had to find a way to market. He credits some of the album’s success to the press run he did earlier in the year, which included outlets such as Reble TV, The Devin Hour, and the Black Minds Podcast. Tynnelle is certainly an artist who stays true to his music. Follow him @tynnelle_ for his latest projects.

On our second episode here at Sloppy Vinyl studios, our host Rich Zeller is joined by the infamous Flak So Brazyy. The young rapper has already made a name for himself, and he joins us to talk about his rap journey.
Flak is pretty new to the music scene, his first ever project, Respect My Pain, dropped only in 2017, but in these few years he has certainly put in the work that gets him recognized throughout Jersey. Through talking to Flak, we learned that he’s a man of many talents. He talks about how he mixed and mastered his latest project almost entirely on his own. The project, Sutton Street was named after a street in his hometown Perth Amboy. He talks about wanting to pick someone up for Go Brazyy Gang, which currently only consists of him, but how he first needs to find someone better than him, until then he feels it’s best to work by himself.
Throughout the interview Flak bounces around from topic to topic, telling us a little bit of everything. The topics range from the sense of pride his mother feels seeing him get recognized, to his beef with other Jersey artists. He speaks about running into Akademiks and seeing it for the opportunity it was. He talks to us about his favorite project, All For the Love, and about the emotions behind another recent project, Feelings and Emotions. In regards to his music selection process, he explains how he has a different method from most artists. He chooses the name of the project first, which sets the tone for the rest of the album.
He surprises us when he says his ultimate goal isn’t to be a rapper. He elaborates on that, explaining that while it’s fun to be the face of the music, it’s not his ultimate goal. He explains, “I don’t really care about being a rapper, I just wanna be rich”. He goes on to say that once he finds someone with the same hustling mentality that he himself has, he’s more than willing to put all his money and effort into that person, and have them be the face of the Go Brazyy brand.
He goes on to mention other local artists, community events, and the possibility of moving to New York. He also gives us an inside scoop on his upcoming mixtape, Heartbreaks and Halos. Follow him to stay up to date with his latest drops @flaksobrazyy .
