Interview: Rob Diioia

MEB staffer Norman Brian Galang recently chopped it up with Rob Diioia, an upcoming rapper & producer from Philadelphia, PA. The 20-year-old rapper supplies fun-hearted raps over soulful uptempo beats that he produced himself. If your hardcore party friend who’s always down to go out happened to make beats like Just Blaze, The Heatmakerz and 9th Wonder, then it’s Diioia.

The Philly native did an exclusive inside interview about his humble beginnings, an upcoming show with Meek Mill, the important role of the producer, the state of East Coast hip-hop, EDM’s role in rap, his purpose in music, views on major record labels, the competitive nature of Philly and more!

Although he’s ultimately working his way out of the underground, his talent is promising. From the interview you can tell Rob is very happy about the music he’s creating and we’ll be looking forward to his next project dropping soon!
