Listen "Rx Peso Talks East Atlanta Streets, Prison, Music Industry Power Moves, & Growth #situationswithmoon"
Episode Synopsis
RxPeso’s origin story is woven into the gritty underbelly of Atlanta, where the city’s underground economy and real-life criminal investigations shaped his early narrative. Notably, the Drug Rich gang—whose members were indicted under Georgia's RICO (Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations) law—made headlines for a violent spree of celebrity home invasions, armed robberies, kidnappings, and assaults. Amid this high-stakes environment, Peso lived what he rapped: navigating street politics, staying sharp, and surviving Atlanta’s most volatile chapters.
Now deeply embedded in Atlanta’s rap scene, RxPeso has shared space with heavyweights like Future, Young Thug, and Playboi Carti — not as a fan, but as a peer. His approach to music is calculated: understanding the power of rollouts, budgets, and strategic collaborations, while staying rooted in authenticity. From surviving the most dangerous corners of Atlanta to plotting generational wealth, Peso embodies the evolution from street soldier to industry force, proving that the strongest hustle is the one built to last.
In this Situations With Moon exclusive, RxPeso opens up about life in the Atlanta streets, surviving prison, and his journey from skateboarding and hustling to taking music seriously. Peso shares hard-earned lessons on staying humble, navigating the industry, and keeping the grind alive — no matter where you are.
From the realities of prison life to the importance of networking and business knowledge in music, this interview is packed with raw truths, street codes, and inspiring gems for artists and hustlers alike.
