Jokes Up Sound
The tracklist highlights the signatures of NYC drill–sliding 808s, ominous pianos, and syncopated snares. Of course, Ron incorporated his touch on the sound, airing on the flair for the dramatic side. When selecting beats, Ron looks for tracks with epic and energetic qualities that remind him of video game boss battles. For Ron Suno, drill music goes beyond street toughness—it’s about creating a party atmosphere and having fun. The project includes popular singles like “Winners,” a dynamic collaboration with Sheff G, garnering over 1.7 million views on YouTube, and “Bandit,” a slick banger with over 1 million YouTube views. Not to mention the one-and-only Fetty Wap joins in on “Drill Zoo.” With additional features from DDG and Jay Critch, Jokes Up is now available worldwide through SBL, LLC / EMPIRE.
Breaking Down The Project
Ron Suno is not only working on his project, but he’s also getting ready to release the “Grabba” music video, giving fans a sneak peek of what’s to come in Jokes Up. The track features a haunting drill instrumental with eerie synths and booming 808s, providing the perfect backdrop for Ron’s confident and flamboyant style. In the upcoming video, directed by his frequent collaborator David Janoff, Ron aims to showcase the fun and party vibes of drill music. In the video, he rocks a vintage Ray Allen Milwaukee Bucks jersey as he stops by one of his favorite bodegas. He adds comedic relief as he communicates with Bronx locals. The video concludes with a snippet of the project’s opening track “SEMI, which shows the rapper’s softer side.
After dropping Swag Like Mike, which included popular tracks like “SPIDER-MAN” featuring Fivio Foreign, Ron Suno has been making major moves. He’s collaborated with artists like DDG and Smoove’L, and he’s caught the attention of XXL and FLAUNT. Ron even made his film debut in BK Juice, a new movie alongside his fellow New York City artist Rah Swish. The hustle never stops for this talented rapper from the Bronx.
“I want Jokes Up to inspire my fans to embrace their true selves,” shares Ron Suno. “When you listen to my music, you’re hearing the real me. I’m not trying to imitate anyone else. The only person who can hold you back is yourself when you’re not being authentic.”
