The effect R.n.i.c had on the genre was felt strongly in the south but resonated throughout the entire country. Upon release, the world was introduced to the gifted rapper and his instant impact on the rap game was palpable. The mixtape that led to Snupe joining Dream Chasers ( R.n.i.c) was rerecorded under Meek’s guidance and released in April of 2013. The young emcee ability to spit was unparalleled and he is the best freestylers I’ve ever heard. There is a reason the 18-year-old MC was referred to as “The Freestyle King”, Snupe could rhyme for an hour straight without hesitation while always keeping his bars fresh and entertaining. There are many videos of Meek and Lil Snupe freestyling together and in almost all of them Snupe has to go ahead and body his mentor. The two spent a lot of time together that year and became close.
Meek quickly took Lil Snupe under his wing and began to show him how to be a successful rapper. "He was spittin' so much pain, he's from the south with a flow like an east coast guy," Meek told MTV. They let the window down and grabbed the mixtape.” 20 minutes later, before even finishing the mixtape, Meek Mill called Lil Snupe and asked him to be apart Dream Chasers, Meek’s record label. And I went and knocked on the van, on the window.
“He (Meek Mill) was in a van, they was finna pull off. In 2013, Lil Snupe spoke about that day with MTV news. It’s unknown when Snupe started rapping, but his career took off in 2012 when he approached Meek Mill’s tour bus. Born Addarren Ross, Snupe frequently got into trouble as a kid and alludes to spending time in juvenile detention in his music. Lil Snupe was born in Jonesboro, Louisiana in 1995. That is until tragedy struck changing the fate of rap forever. For the two months following the release of his only mixtape R.n.i.c (Real Niggas In Charge), there was a unanimous belief in the rap game that the throne was Snupe’s for the taking. Snupe had peers twice his age looking up to him due to his absolutely lethal flow and southern drawl that allowed his punchlines to be piercing. From “The Freestyle King” to “Meek Mill’s Protege” to “2Pac Reincarnated” it is easy to gather that he was beyond well-respected. In just 18 years of life, Lil Snupe has earned many monikers.
