We were lucky to catch up with Alka RBN recently and have shared our conversation below.
Hi Alka, thanks for joining us today. What’s been the most meaningful project you’ve worked on?
My most meaningful project to date thats on the way is Have Nots. It’s special because I’m going back to my roots letting my people know I haven’t forgotten about them because you have the (Haves) and I wanna be the voice of the Have Nots. Really just representing real life especially with the last two years and the pandemic our people has went through alot. Also I’m taking the Have Nots and making it a brand of clothing and with the profit I wanna give back to the community. This tape it’ll symbolize that. Make a mark on the world.
Great, appreciate you sharing that with us. Before we ask you to share more of your insights, can you take a moment to introduce yourself and how you got to where you are today to our readers
My name is Alka RBN I was born and raised in Flint, Michigan. An I always had a thing for music as a child just started to take it seriously plus the doubt of other made me go harder. I’m the founder of RBN music (Real By Nature) that represents me to the core. An what sets me apart from others is my way thinking I tend to expand on my creatively alot making something that’s small meaningful. I’m most proud of my growth within the music and business I give myself props plus I believe in myself don’t really try to let anything get to me for real. I want my future fans to know that R.B.N isn’t just a brand it’s a movement so anybody be R.B.N as long as your true to yourself.
We’d love to hear the story of how you built up your social media audience?
Really honestly consistency. Showing love to those who support me most from family, friends etc. Also promotion and marketing is key in this business so I had to buckle down and find some marketing/promotional companies that has the same vision. Distribution included
Is there something you think non-creatives will struggle to understand about your journey as a creative? Maybe you can provide some insight – you never know who might benefit from the enlightenment.
If anything I would say just the direction I’m trying to go with the music. Making something they can vibe too but at the same time it’s creative. I love explaining the craft because that just shows how much thought I put into it.
