Ronnie Radke, frontman ofFalling In Reverse, is always up to something. We loved the band’s latest release ’Fashionably Late’, and Ronnie did a pretty sweet job producing Survive This!’s debut record. Here he reveals some of his projects for the future, including a pretty sick sounding mix-tape
With your new album, Fashionably Late, theres an expansion of your sound to include some rap influences. Can you talk about having the freedom to grow your sound and the risks you took with this record?
Its very invigorating now, but at first it wasnt cause I was kind of scared until we played our first show. The crowd started singing along and thats when I was stoked. I was so thrilled to see people liking the rap and having a good time.
Having seeing that side embraced, do you see continuing to pursue that direction or even taking things somewhere else?
Well, Im doing a mix tape right now with everybody on the scene thats doing well. Danny Worsnop fromAsking Alexandria, Andy Biersack fromBlack Veil Bridesis singing on it. Its all rap, but theyre singing all the choruses on it. TheresJacoby ShaddixfromPapa Roach. TheresDeuce, and weve got Craig Mabbitt [from Escape the Fate] singing on it. Theres more too, but every track is going to be someone.
When might we see that mix tape?
Im giving it away for free to the fans. I just wanted to do something different in our scene that nobodys ever done. Nobodys ever done anything like that. I never realized how many people respected me until I asked and saw how many people wanted to do it. It made me really happy. I couldnt believe that so many people came around and sang on it and rapped on it. Its pretty crazy. But it may be about Christmas when it comes out.
Can’t wait to have a listen to that! Check out the rest of the interview here
