1833 is proud to present to you the debut track by OrgenA, a talented producer & emcee from Los Angeles who is now based in Chicago. We also asked him a few questions to get an idea of where he is in this exciting beginning to his career. Clear your eyes and experience “Vysine”.
Q: What does the name orgenA mean? How do you feel that it is representative of you or your music?
A: It’s as simple as it is complex. The name represents me in the sense that, when read backwards, it spells A negro. The more I delve into my creation, the more aware I become of my blackness – of my being a Negro both in my society and within myself. In a separate aspect – I represent my generation. A generation building itself in arguably the most backwards yet capable society on this globe. So, it only made more sense that the true meaning of the name was better understood when read backwards.
Q: Being from the West Coast Los Angeles area how do you see yourself fitting in somewhere like the midwest?
A: Pretty easily actually. I just brought my hustle here. Chicago is one of those places where people respect hustle & I respect the same, so the transition was like water. Im a West Coast Kid in my blood, but Im rocking with the Midwest heavy.
Q: So What does the song “Vysine” mean to you? What do you want it to mean to your listeners?
A: Power.
