Today’s artist spotlight: Rio Wyles aka Soulshocka!

Rio has been working with Spec Labs for over 5 years now!

Check out their 5 year retro-spec-tive by clicking the image below:


We also asked Soulshocka a few questions that they answered below:

Tell me about what makes you passionate about being a rapper and an artist in general!?


-It’s an outlet to expressing myself, to create, and to deliver a message.

What are some things about yourself that might surprise your friends?


-I'm obsessed with Geography! And accents; I've even mastered a few!

I hate mint. Including mint chip ice cream. Pass. Mint toothpaste is my limit. I love comedies!

What has Spec Lab Records done for you to help you achieve any of your creative goals?


-I can't say enough about Garth and Jason!

They whip my butt! Or, at least try to, but allow me to drive the ship creatively.

They also provide a platform to expose my music. I feel lucky to be working with them!
