Hip-hop artist, producer, songwriter, graphic designer and indie label owner. Rune Will is a vibe of his own whether it be high energy or chill cause either way it’s straight heat. With radio singles “Caine Flow”, “MotorSkills” and “LHS” burning up airways in multiple cities showcasing his versatility as a producer and songwriter. Rune’s latest single “Night Cap” is a mix of modern soul, jazz and hip-hop taking him back to his musical roots with a project titled “High Sole” following.  

    Growing up in Chicago immersed in music with a jazz lover as a father, underground funk & hip-hop Dj as an uncle and an expert on soul and funk as a grandfather Rune being an artist was inevitable. Having multiple instruments in the home he grew up a musically inclined child playing the violin in the orchestra and drums by ear in band, dabbling with piano and guitar. When it came to songwriting Rune’s pivotal influences and inspiration came from Linkin Park, Ludacris, and Eminem. This all culminates producing a flare of lyrical poise, melodic awareness and outside of the box production  that just draws you into his musical world.

Born From The Cities Of Southeast WI. Chalant Diversifies the Hip Hop Genre By Creating His Own Wave. In Addition To This, Chalant Explores Areas Of Rock, Pop, R&B & Multi Cultural Sounds In His Music. He Has Voice/Vocal Range That’s Resonates And Separates Him From Various Artist. It Is Certainly Difficult To Place A Tag On This Great Artist. Still Quite Frankly, Chalant Is A True Creative Force And Is Always Moving Forward In His Music Career.

The interview is laid back and begins with some background questions such as how Chalant got into music, his inspirations, and how he got his name. We then get into his recent project B.O.B. and where he would be without music. Chalant also has several other talents outside of music and is very multi-faceted as we come to learn through the interview. It felt more like a conversation between two friends instead of a hard-hitting interview. Casual can often be better than formal settings.

My vision for creativity was recognized at an early age, I had an interest in blueprints as a kid and designed my dream-home before I was 10.  I was raised with a strong entrepreneurial foundation watching my parents run their businesses, my father’s construction company and my mom as a realtor, they both say “Design is in my DNA”.
