On The Ball With Bryce Vine

Samantha Aneed

Passionate, driven and confident are three words often used to describe artists. Those three words all describe Bryce Vine. Vine is a rapper, creator, thinker and hip-hop artist who quickly went from being a small-town secret to a household name. From signing to his first record label to having a song on the radio, we spoke with Vine about all these things and more.

When it comes to all things music, Vine is definitely no stranger to the process. He got his start in the industry as an independent artist who made himself known with just a DJ, manager and talent. After years in the industry, Vine was signed to Warner Bros. Records which was just the start of his rise to fame. Being an independent artist can be very complicated and Vine noted that it was a lot of work.

“It was a lot of work on the independent side. I mean, I don’t know how Chance The Rapper does it. It’s a lot of work. You really learn to do as much as you can before someone jumps in to give you support like a label does” said Vine.

“My manager and I have done everything from getting into a pool together to shoot a promo video, we’ve even slept in crappy hotels, slept in the desert and like- we’ve done everything.”  Vine went on to show his love for his label. “After you’ve done all that, it feels really great when a label provides support. You definitely appreciate it. I’m having more fun now than I would have if this happened five years ago.”
