Single: Rockie Fresh – “VS Ideas”
The Chicago Rapper Celebrates His Come-Up in a Twinkling New Track
Critical Praise:
“He’s brought out the big guns for his debut album” – HYPEBEAST
“Rockie Fresh celebrates life, while shrugging off the haters on this bouncy number.” – REVOLT
The Song:
Unflappable in the face of success and always cool in a crisis, Rockie Fresh is one of the rap game’s most reliably chill figures. In a mood to celebrate his rise from nothing to something, Rockie shares “VS Ideas,” a brand new single. Saluting his well-earned life of luxury with lilting melody Rockie raises his glass as he enjoys the spoils of his success: “I done came up in the game, now I’m a pro wit it/These n****s say they in the game, but they got no minutes.” Produced by Mathaius Young, “VS Ideas” is the second new song the Chicago native dropped in 2020, following “Let It Be,” which earned placement on Spotify’s Most Necessary playlist.
Last week, Rockie shared the visual for “Must Be,” a Chris Brown-featuring highlight track from Destination, Rockie’s debut album. With coverage from Billboard, HYPEBEAST, and HotNewHipHop, Destination arrived shortly after Rockie left Rick Ross’s Maybach Music Group and inked a deal with Rostrum Records. Last year’s album hosted video singles like “Round Here” and “Maria,” and benefitted from the laid-back charm Rockie lends to each release. Earlier this year, Rockie shared the playful clip for album highlight “Feelings Hurt,” which features appearances from Rockie’s frequent collaborator Casey Veggies and his Rostrum labelmate 24hrs. Stay tuned in the coming weeks for much more audio and visual content from Rockie Fresh.

The Background:
To some, life is all about the journey—destination be damned. Not so for Rockie Fresh. Since his rise as a whip-smart up-and-coming teenage rapper from Chicago to mixtape-slinging signee and Rick Ross protégé with Maybach Music Group in his early 20’s, Rockie has always known where he was headed and what it would take him to get there. And now, at only 27, freshly signed to Rostrum Records and on the heels of a fistful of smash records, epic collaborations with some of the biggest names in the game, and huge-selling tours, Rockie Fresh has arrived at his biggest belt-notch to date.
