Exclusive Wu-Tang Actor TJ Atoms Talks New Single “Potato Chips”

by Tobby Oniga November 8, 2021
written by Tobby Oniga

On October 27, actor TJ Atoms, who plays Ol’ Dirty Bastard on the popular Hulu series Wu-Tang: An American Saga, hosted an exclusive season 2 finale screening at Soho House in NYC. The event was hosted by Atoms manager Brittany Rae. This screening brought out many Hip-Hop legends like RZA, Lenny Santiago, and many more.

This event offered an open bar sponsored by D’usse, and ice cream bars and potato chips featuring pictures of the Wu-Tang cast. After a brief introduction about TJ, attendees began viewing the season finale for the first half of the night. The second half of the evening was a celebration for TJ Atoms’ new single “Potato Chips”.

Atoms took the stage to perform “Parking Lot,” “Yea,” “Meenworld,” and his debut single. He engaged with the room by walking into the crowd and rapping along with his guests while they danced along with him. This song was created with electrifying 808s to complete the earthly production arranged by Doctor Freon.

For the remainder of the night, guests mingled with one another, and Atoms and his crew remained on stage dancing and jamming out to various songs.

We had the opportunity to ask TJ a few questions before his single release.

The Knockturnal: How excited are you for your single release?

TJ Atoms: Super, super excited. It has been a while since I dropped any music. I have been making music since I was like 16. So to finally be here where I have a great team behind me, the season finale of Wu-Tang An American Saga. I feel like it’s just a great point to pivot onto the next energy. That’s what we’re doing tonight. Potato Chips is out now!

The Knockturnal: How was the process of creating this new single?

TJ Atoms: I made it during the pandemic, so you know everyone was in their own mind doing their thing. I was at a point that I really wanted to talk to the people and give them something they could really feel motivated by, feel inspired by, and still groove to it at the same time.

The Knockturnal: What are some upcoming things you’re working on that you can share with us?

TJ Atoms: I got the Mike Tyson series that is coming out next year, I got a movie that’s coming out with Omari Hardwick called Fels High. I shot that in my city, it’s coming out next year. I’m working on my own movie that I’m executive producing that’s coming next year called “Free The Dreamers”. So I got a lot of stuff. I have my clothing line apparel dropping next month. I’m just working hard.

Exclusive: Upcoming Canadian Rapper Boslen Talks Debut Album ‘DUSK to DAWN’

by Tobby Oniga November 8, 2021
written by Tobby Oniga

With nearly 20 million streams, the upcoming 22-year-old rapper Boslen is the next hottest commodity out of Vancouver, BC. Despite his hopes of becoming a professional Rugby player in college, his dreams were cut short after he sustained an injury. However, the Canadian rapper is already gaining a strong fan following in the US and Canada. Boslen has already caught the eye of a few media outlets like XXL, FADER, HNHH, and Lyrical Lemonade. His biggest singles to date are ‘VULTURES’, which has received over 170,000 streams in one month, and “Eye for an Eye” which raked up 900,000 views on YouTube.

Boslen recently dropped his Capitol Records debut album, DUSK to DAWN. This project consists of 12 songs produced by Justsayin that take you on a sonic journey from darkness to light with features from Charmaine, Vory, Tyla Yaweh, Rascalz, and more. With a mixture of trap, punk, pop, and rock melodies, listeners will be taken on a shape-shifting transition throughout the album.

We had the opportunity to talk to Boslen about his Jamaican and Indigenous descent, his life before music, the process of creating his debut album, upcoming projects, and learning more about his work ethics and his appreciation for Kanye West.

The KnockTurnal: You spoke a lot about Kid Cudi’s “Up, Up, Away” which helped you through a troubled time. Did you get into music to help comfort people who were going through a hard time as well?

Boslen: Yes, the feeling music gave me as a kid made me not feel alone. I wanted to establish my career. Also, music played an important time in my life during my athletic career before music. It would help me stay motivated. So when I started making music, I wanted to harness that energy I felt and put it into my craft to help others. 

The KnockTurnal: Let’s talk about your first song. What made you want to go into the studio, and what was your inspiration for your first track?

Boslen: It was called “Charlie Chaplin,” I think. My mom bought me his poster from Ikea and I just looked at it while I wrote my first song. I’m still unsure why, but that poster inspired me to just create. I think it was cause my dad was showing me the Three Stooges around the same time, so just being creative and finding my own identity as a kid I saw as “growing up”. But my first time going to the studio for me was my garage. I got some money from Christmas and saved up to buy my own setup. To me, that was the best studio I ever needed. I would just make beats and record myself for hours that summer. 

The KnockTurnal: With a Caribbean and Canadian background, did your cultural heritage have any impact on the sound you have created for yourself?

Boslen: Absolutely, both my parents introduced me to my First Nation/Indigenous side so as a kid that helped me creatively tap into spirits and animals for wordplay and also use these themes with a meaning behind it. That helped my music become authentic, it wasn’t good but it was authentic to me at the time growing up and helped me become the artist I am today.

The KnockTurnal: How would you describe the process of creating “the Black Lotus Ep” vs “DUSK to DAWN”? What did you change about your work ethics to create the debut album you knew you wanted?

Boslen: Black Lotus was made at a time when I was first transitioning my living situation from Chilliwack to Vancouver. I had just met my executive producer at the time Justsayin, and he introduced me to a lot of beats I have never heard before. The best way I can explain them would be as “spooky”. From there I was working with new producers I had just met in the city of Vancouver and taking any session I could, I was hungry to just work. The 7 song project came together within 3 months. it was ready to be released with no structure and just a group of songs that I liked at the time. On the other hand, DUSK to DAWN was worked on for over a year. My creative director Natasha and I came up with the visuals of this album together and wanted to do something different, take a risk. Everything felt calculated, from the music to the songwriting to the way it all fits together from merch to videos to songs to showcases. I wanted to build a world. 

The KnockTurnal: You speak about “DUSK to DAWN” being a sonic journey from darkness to light. Were you mentally in a dark space and overtime were you able to overcome this feeling? 

Boslen: Absolutely. From the first day, we started this project I was at a low point in my life. I kept having past thoughts that would haunt my mind. While I was making this project it was very therapeutic for me because I witnessed myself becoming more grounded as a human. Admitting and facing your inner self is one of the hardest things anyone can do, and for me the more I did it the more I felt empowered. 

The KnockTurnal: You spoke about “Dusk to Dawn” being pushed back five times. What made you finally say ok this project is finally ready for the world to hear?

Boslen: It just felt right, it felt like all the stars were aligning and you can just tell at the moment. As creators we all chase perfection and that ultimately sparks madness. I think I was just crazy enough in the moment to be like “okay we’re ready”.

The KnockTurnal: In your previous interview, you speak a lot about Kanye and his work ethic, and the person he was able to become today. Would you say Kanye has a big impact on the artist you are becoming? What is the most important thing you learned from Kanye?

Boslen: I think so. His ability to reinvent himself so more people can connect to him is very powerful. His work ethic and methods are very different and I admire that. I don’t wanna be a sheep. Becoming a trailblazer in this day and age is the hardest thing. This industry is filled with more artists than ever before. So standing out is not just about the music anymore. Kanye impacted my mentality on that. Everything around the music must also hold artistic integrity and truth. 

The KnockTurnal: You speak a lot about having your listener appreciate the art behind your music being the most important thing to you. Would you say streams, and views aren’t as important to you? Especially in a generation where an artist can explode overnight from a viral video.

Boslen: I’d be lying if I didn’t say a #1 song would be nice. But at the end of the day, all that matters is the kids. The supporters. The people who are willing to drive across a city and wait outside to see you perform. There are many artists who have big numbers online but cannot fill a room. I’m just trying to grow organically and that takes time man. 

The KnockTurnal: As the year is wrapping up, what else can we expect from you this year? 

Boslen: A show in Los Angeles I just announced. Another song that I can’t wait for you’ll to hear. But really we are gonna hit the ground running at the top of the new year so keep your eyes out.

The KnockTurnal: You had the opportunity to work alongside Vory, Charmaine, and a few others. Who do you hope to have a collaboration with in the future?

Boslen: Kid Cudi.

Exclusive: Meet New MMG Artist Smoke Bulga

by Tobby Oniga October 12, 2021
written by Tobby Oniga

Smoke Bulga out of Boston, Massachusetts is the newest artist to be signed to Maybach Music Group (MMG). The partnership with MMG has been in the works for over a decade. Bulga made his first appearance among MMG on former protégé Masspike Miles’ song “We Made It” with Rick Ross in 2010. Over the years, a personal relationship was formed and Bulga eventually captured the attention of Ross.

With previous collaborations with Jim Jones, Conway the Machine, and Statik Selektah, Bulga is no stranger to the music industry. He recently revealed his latest single  “Water Whip’N” featuring CEO Rick Ross sampled Black Rob classic “Whoa” that was released in 2000. The video features appearances from Fat Joe, N.O.R.E, and Jonathan “Foodgod” Cheban.

His upcoming debut album “100 Million Ain’t Enough” is set to release this year. Aside from music, Bulga has hopes of becoming more involved in the Hollywood movie scene. Recently, he starred in a movie called “Lethal Procedures” on Netflix.

Not only has Bulga formed a partnership with entrepreneur Rick Ross, but also with hip-hop artist/producer David Banner. Banner introduced Bulga to the entrepreneurial side of the music industry by showing him how to be a man of many hats. This way he will always bring something new to the table. DG Collectives is Bulga’s new clothing line that features jackets, shirts, and various items. This is another way Bulga hopes to become a mogul in the music industry.

Check out our latest interview with Smoke Bulga below.

The Knockturnal: How was it growing up in Boston? How was the music scene like in Boston growing up?

Smoke Bulga: It’s crazy because I had a mixer meeting with some DJs from Boston last night. We were talking about growing up in Boston, there was a lot of crash and burn for me. I had to bump my head to learn right from wrong. In Boston, we don’t have anyone that kind of blaze the trail for us or have a blueprint for us to follow. So we had to learn on our own as we went along.

The Knockturnal: As an artist who has been around the industry for a while before this opportunity with MMG was presented to you, what would you say to an upcoming artist who thinks getting into this industry is an overnight process?

Smoke Bulga: Man, I heard you guys talking about the late great Nip before I logged on. In his words, it’s a marathon. It’s not a hundred-yard dash, you have to have the endurance for the game, and be ready for the long haul. Some people can go viral and it can happen that way, but even some of those guys have been putting in a lot of work over the years, it’s definitely something you have to prepare for. You have to have the mental capability to be able to stand the test of time because it doesn’t happen overnight. A lot of people give up before that time happens and that has a lot to do with having endurance and sticking at it.

 

The Knockturnal: Not only did you have the opportunity to form a mentorship with Rick Ross but also hip-hop artist/producer David Banner. Talk to me about this mentorship and how this relationship helped you become the artist you are today.

Smoke Bulga: Wow. You know David Banner has been one of my OG’s in the game, definitely taught me a lot. He showed me a lot about work ethic and working hard at your craft. Him being a producer, writer, rapper, and entrepreneur. When I met him at the time, he was at the back of his trunk, he was on the bus, he had his studio on the bus, he was selling his CDs out of the truck. So I learned a lot about entrepreneurship, you have to be a man of many hats. It can’t just be one thing you focus on. You have to have a few different things you bring to the game because it’s always about bringing something to the table.

The Knockturnal: Your sound is very unique and it’s not something we hear everyday. Artists sometimes spend years perfecting their sound. How long did it take you to find this sound? How much has it changed from when you first began your career?

Smoke Bulga: Wow. You know it’s crazy because when I meet people that’s the first thing they reference, it’s my voice. Since a young age, going through puberty and everything, my voice settled in. So it’s always been a part of me and my sound. I take pride in my voice and having a unique voice like you said. Everyone I saw, who had a voice that I had, not the same thing but similar, made an impact on the game. A big impact on the game. I’m hoping to follow some of that success such as DMX, Pop Smoke, Tupac, just following their footsteps and bringing the same greatness to the game.

The Knockturnal: Your latest track “Water Whip’N” featuring Rick Ross was a Black Rob sample from the classic “Whoa” that was released in 2000. Was this track recorded prior to you signing with MMG? Also, did you release this after Black Rob’s death to pay tribute to him?

Smoke Bulga:  I actually had two versions of the song. It was a whole different beat on the song originally. I had sent the song to the producer, we had the video and everything was already done. I just sent it to the producers to get their ear on if they hear different things on my music. I said let me send the Water Whip’N to see if they hear something different on the production side. They called me and said yo, we put the Black Rob sample on there and flipped it and brought it to 2022 even though we were in 2021. He was like yo, I want to sequence in there for a few bars, and I’ll let you hear it. Then when I heard it, I was like yo that’s crazy, we gotta run with that, that’s it right there. Then when Ross heard it, he loved it. After that, the rest was history. RIP to Black Rob. Coming up as a shorty, that was one of my favorite records. So it was an honor to be able to represent black Rob and hold it down for the East Coast as well. So RIP Black Rob, shoutout to Diddy, the whole Bad Boy family, Black Rob family, and his management team. We’re working out everything right now as far as the beats. It looks like they’re going to come through and look out for the kid. So that’s definitely a blessing.

The Knockturnal: As a newly signed artist with MMG, what can we look forward to from you?

Smoke Bulga: We got a lot of great things happening. Being a part of an all-star team a collective like Maybach Music, I can do nothing but bring greatness forward. With guys like Meek Mill, Wale, and Rick Ross, it’s nothing but greatness on the label. I look to add on to the team and put another banner in the back and bring another championship ring to MMG.

The Knockturnal: In one of your interviews, I heard you say you worked on a movie recently. What project was this? Are you trying to get into acting more?

Smoke Bulga: Definitely, Definitely. I was in a movie recently called “Lethal Procedures”. It was on Netflix, you can look it up. I had a nice role in that movie. You know the movie is pretty dope. Acting is a subculture within a culture for me that I’m looking to do my thing in as well. Acting was one of those things as a kid I always wanted to do. So when I gave it a try in the movie, I was getting a lot of great reviews, and everyone was saying I did my thing. I improvised through the whole thing, I had two days to prepare. I think I did a pretty good job, and I loved what I was doing. So I really could see myself doing this in the future.

The Knockturnal: I feel like Boston is very lowkey in the music scene. You had a few artists coming out of there but recently I wouldn’t say people look here for music. How important is it for you to put your city on the map with this opportunity?

Smoke Bulga: That is so important to me because I really feel like I was one of the guys born to bring that respect to Boston. To make people respect Boston. To finally bring us to the plateau. I feel like we need  to be respected alongside the other big cities. I just really feel like this is what God put me on the earth to do, to take Boston to that next level. Musically and culturally, to bring us into the game like never before. I definitely feel like I’m going to be one of those artists. Just like in a race, you have seven or eight  lanes, and as long as I’m in one of those lanes, I’m running the race and I’ll get the baton in the relay. I’m definitely going to finish the race and do what I have to do.

 

The Knockturnal: Who are some artists we should be on the lookout for in Boston?

Smoke Bulga: We got Milly doing his thing right now, BIA definitely doing her thing right now, Joyner Lucas, Cousin Stizz. We got a line of different artists, there are so many of yall I can’t even name. There are so many artists in Boston that’s doing their thing right now. I feel like right now we have one of the best teams on the court in order to win a championship. I really feel like with the artists we have right now playing on the court, we definitely could win.

The Knockturnal: Where do you see yourself in the next 5-10 years in the music industry? Aside from movies, is there anything else you hope the music industry gives you the opportunity to be a part of?

Smoke Bulga: I see my new LP coming out “100 Million Ain’t Enough”. I see myself having a great coach and playing for a great team like MMG and having a coach like Rick Ross. Ross is definitely one of the goats when it comes to Entrepreneurship. Me learning everything from him, I see myself going on into my ventures and being a mogul within the music business as well as the fashion industry. I have my own clothing line, I do jackets and a little bit of everything. Check out my clothing line DG Collectives, we’re doing big things with that as well. I see myself being in a movie, getting off into Hollywood. Tapping into the fitness world. Just everything I can get my hands on, being an asset to the culture, and bringing something to the game. That’s what I’m here for.

The Knockturnal: What artist are you looking forward to collaborating with the most?

Smoke Bulga: Wow um, right now I would love to collaborate with those guys at CMG. I love what they’re doing, I love how they move as a team. First of all with my MMG counterparts, Wale, Meek Mill. I already have “Water Whip’N” with Ross. That was like a dream come true. I would love to do a song with Drake, I love what Drake is doing right now. It’s so many artists, I would love to work with every artist doing their thing in the game right now.
