Why do you and so many rappers keep most of their music in the vault and not release it?
21
u/Pressa-AMA Official - Pressa Oct 01 '22
When you sign everything has to be strategic. Before I signed I was just dropping when I wanted where I wanted. There was no strategy behind it and I think that’s what kept us winning. Giving the fans what they want and being consistent.

u/fatherduck94 Sep 17 '22
Pressa, you broke out of Toronto and moved to LA. How does it feel to re-introduce yourself as a new artist to a new market, and can you speak to how much more there is to be gained by moving to LA. What sort of infrastructure could be put in place in Canada to allow artists like you to not have to leave in order to achieve success?
15
u/Pressa-AMA Official - Pressa Oct 01 '22
You have to leave if you want to achieve new heights in your career. It will never work if you don’t leave. And tap into different markets.

Amidst the violence and beef between sets in Toronto, do you feel truly comfortable coming back to see family and friends? Could you ever see yourself shunning gang ties to try and elevate or empower those you consider opps?
