Hip-Hop Lives Here
CALIFORNIA - Many musicians release singles and hope fans connect to it. However, true artists use their music to bond with fans through a mutual experience or connection. For Amedee, identifying with his fans drives him every day in the studio.
“I make really good music,” said Amedee, who refers to his music as substance/reality rap. “Identifying with the people and trying to relate is what’s most important to me and my music because if you can’t relate with people and they can’t understand, there’s no point. When I write, I don’t necessarily write about what you’re going through or what your group of people is going through. Every song I make comes from my personal experience and my reality. It’s not about anybody else, but people feel as if I’m speaking for them also because they can relate to my truths. People appreciate my honesty. I’m a very transparent and genuine person.
Amedee is fast becoming the go-to hip-hop artist for mid-tempo emotional, heartfelt music that people can relate to. While he does his share of party music, his latest release, “To Whom It May Concern,” rides a vibe that showcases his genuine rap style with slick punch lines and lyrics that resonate with every listener. Mixed with a melodic reggae-ish vibe paying homage to Bob Marley, Amedee’s track does not sound like the typical rap song, but the music is catching fire due to the way it hooks listeners into its message and vibe.
While navigating through life and shutting out the doubters, Amedee said, “To Whom It May Concern” is his statement to his cynics. “This is my F-U song for anybody that’s doubted me and everybody that talks about me. It’s an introduction song, ‘hello, I’m Amedee, nice to meet you.’ I’m telling them you can hate me now but just wait ’til I bubble. I’m one of those people who gave and gave and just kind of got shitted on. This is my F-U; I am who I am, song to the world.”
While Amedee said “To Whom It May Concern” is a personal song, he knows fans across the globe can identify with its lyrics. “Everyone at some point in their life hears a lot of chatter from the outside, opinions about the way they are,” he said. “This is my shut the F-Up and let me live type of song.”
“To Whom It May Concern” was recorded at Eravox Studios in Carlsbad, with Amedee taking an active role in its creation. He went old school and resisted using autotune on this track using a beat from German producer Arma. Amedee’s creative abilities shine through the track’s every note from recording all the sound effects himself and voices for the song.
Devoting all his time to writing and producing music while trying to maintain a balance between being a father and having a 9-5, Amedee believes in his talent and seeks the respect he deserves from industry members. It is evident with his latest release that he is on the cusp of becoming a household name.
“I dedicated my life to music. I dropped out of culinary school to make music. I was one of those people who took music seriously and has given it his all,” he said. “Now, I want people to hear my music.”

RSN’L (pronounced “Arsenal”) is a Christian hip-hop artist armed with a sharp lyrical pen guided by the word of God. His music not only shares the message of God’s Word but combines it with creative punchlines, high energy and an authentic dedication to creating songs that resonate with the listener. His latest single, “TILL I SEE JESUS,” which features producer OnBeatMusic, finds him discussing the persecution he’s faced in his faith walk and how he won’t let anything stop him.
The track “TILL I SEE JESUS” is one that came from commitment. Written around 2AM, it’s a song that was born once RSN’L entered a flow state during the creative process. The words came pouring out of him and by 11AM, he was headed to the booth to record them. A natural process like this is commonplace as no song is created by forcing it, compromising or anything of the sort.
“I’m not going to stop and I’m not going to quit. I’m pouring everything into this and it's setting me free. There’s nothing in the way of me doing this because as I continue, obstacles are moving out of my way. I’m doing my part by doing what God called me to do which is to teach and encourage people through truth. Everything I write can be tied into truth or scripture.” he said.
The biblical references throughout “TILL I SEE JESUS” are surrounded by ever evolving production from OnBeatMusic that creates an atmosphere of triumph and confidence. His flow switches throughout the song keep the energy at a high level and showcase his namesake excellently. The name “RSN’L” represents how every verse he spits is a weapon in the arsenal of faith, and each song is aimed at the hearts of listeners who need transformation more than entertainment.
RSN’L makes music for the mind and culture of Christ. He’s not making music to make money nor is he interested in creating a fame centric fanbase. He was called to do something that is not widely accepted and he is okay with that. He knows God has equipped him with the tools and the gifts to share His message and it will reach those it is supposed to.
“Regardless of what people think, I’m the one who has to have my heart and motives right because it is not my intent to try to capitalize off of the Gospel or even use the talents I have for my own glorification.” he said.
RSN’L loves that he can use music to share God’s Word because music itself works both sides of the brain at the same time and creates neuropassages. He also knows God created the world with His mouth by speaking and that shows that words have power, a voice has power and what we say creates. By making music based on the will of God and using the talents God has given him to share the message through the music, he is impacting people directly.
“The heart is our minds, the will and the emotion. Music can impact a person so heavily that it steers their future. So when they listen to God’s Word through my music, they’re submitting themselves to the truth within it.” he said.
RSN’L’s full story is a living breathing testimony to how God’s power is truly life changing. From his days growing up in Englewood on the South Side of Chicago to enlisting in the military and to now being a father and husband, his journey is one of faith and persistence. He continues to share God’s word through ministry and music.
“TILL I SEE JESUS” feat. OnBeatMusic is available on streaming services now.
