RNL Stackz: From Bronx Roots to Brooklyn Hustle, The Rise of a Self-Made Living Legend

New York has always been a breeding ground for resilience, ambition, and raw talent and RNL Stackz is a direct product of that energy. Born in the Bronx and sharpened by the unforgiving streets of Brooklyn, his journey is one defined by consistency, independence, and an unbreakable grind. Since stepping into music in 2013, Stackz has built his name from the ground up, collaborating across projects, pushing his sound, and creating opportunities on his own terms.

From lighting up Times Square with his own billboard to dropping a steady stream of mixtapes, singles, and his album Living Legend, RNL Stackz continues to prove that success isn’t given, it’s earned. But beyond the music and milestones, there’s a deeper story behind the brand “Respect N Loyalty.” To really understand who he is and what drives him, tap into his exclusive interview with V-Henny, where he opens up about his journey, mindset, and the meaning behind it all.

V-Henny: Growing up between the Bronx and Brooklyn, how did those two environments shape your sound and your mindset as an artist?

RNL Stackz: Growing up between the Bronx and Brooklyn it shaped my sound to be gritty raw and upfront you know.

V-Henny: You’ve been grinding since 2013, what kept you consistent during times when things didn’t seem to be moving forward?

RNL Stackz: What kept me consistent through my long journey is just honestly just wanted to be heard by people I didn’t know all over the world as much as possible to continue to get different reactions I knew home wasn’t enough.

V-Henny: Seeing your billboard in Times Square is a major milestone. What did that moment mean to you personally, not just as an artist but as a man?

RNL Stackz: To see my mixtape cover on a billboard in Times Square made me feel as a man that I can accomplish anything through god and positivity and my kids will be proud of me for it. As an artist it honestly just made me want to go harder.

V-Henny: Your brand stands on “Respect and Loyalty.” Can you share a real-life experience that made those values non-negotiable for you?

RNL Stackz: One real life experience where respect and loyalty was non negotiable I would say being proposed with record deal that wanted me to represent things I just disassociated myself with so I had to be honest about that upfront.

V-Henny: You’ve collaborated with a lot of artists over the years, what do you look for in a collaboration, and what makes someone earn your respect in this industry?

RNL Stackz: I honestly look in a collaboration to be genuine as possible from us meeting to us naturally writing the record and also recording it I don’t ask for too much about that and of course let’s handle the business correctly. What makes someone earn my respect in this industry a person necessarily keeping there word in this industry you get told a lot of non sense you just want people to keep up there end of the bargain.

V-Henny: Living Legend is a bold title for an album. What defines a “living legend” in your eyes, and why did you feel the title represented you?

RNL Stackz: Living legend. What defines that in my eyes is someone who obviously starts out as regular person but as they navigate through life they find there selves continually around people that are considered of high natures like legends that most people don’t have access to. I felt this title represented me in ways people that are close to me only knows I’ve been in rooms that sometimes I don’t even know how I got myself into so heavy is the head that wears the crown I’ll call myself a living legend until the end of me.

V-Henny: What’s something about RNL Stackz that your fans don’t see on social media or hear in your music, but is a big part of who you are?

RNL Stackz: Something that a lot of my supporters don’t know about me is that I take the role of being a father very serious. Highly committed to being the best father that I can be somehow between all of these show dates tours podcasts etc. I take my son to school as much as I can and also spend time with my son and daughter on the weekends while my sons lil sister (Sons Mom Daughter) comes along as well as I take her to school. Doesn’t matter if the child came from me or not I’ll forever be in a kids life if asked to be.

V-Henny: When you’re not in the studio or working, what does your personal life look like? What keeps you grounded?

RNL Stackz: My Kids man. My kids keep me grounded going and constantly give me the pill of motivation to be great every song every video every show.

V-Henny: You’ve built a lot independently, including your own promotion. What advice would you give to independent artists trying to get visibility without major backing?

RNL Stackz: The advice I would give to new artists without a major backing is come up with your own algorithm meaning mic check Mondays freestyle Fridays etc. commit to that alone then go from there you should see progress. 

V-Henny: When you look back at your younger self just starting out in 2013, what would you tell him and what do you think he’d say about the man you’ve become today?

RNL Stackz: Man I would tell my younger self bro don’t take a break at ALL. I didn’t have kids at the time so I knew this what I wanted to do just didn’t think it would have got me this far. Tell myself keep challenging yourself you’re only gonna get better you know. I think he would compliment the man and the artist I’ve became today only for the simple reason coming from where we come from we’re not supposed to make it this far I’m supposed to be another statistic and I broke that cycle as much as possible. 

RNL Stackz represents more than just music—he represents a lifestyle built on principles, perseverance, and purpose. Aligning with Nymrod Federal and representing Federal X Records, he’s turned his grind into a movement that continues to grow with every release and every stage he touches.

As an artist who moves with intention and authenticity, Stackz is carving out his legacy in real time. With a catalog that speaks for itself and a brand rooted in Respect and Loyalty, he’s not just chasing success—he’s defining it. And as his journey continues to unfold, one thing is clear: RNL Stackz is here to stay, and his story is far from finished.

Nevaeh Flowers: Rising R&B Pop Artist, Performer & Entrepreneur Redefining Empowerment Through Music

Nevaeh Flowers is quickly becoming a name to know in the worlds of music, fashion, and youth empowerment. As a rising R&B, pop, and hip-hop artist from a new generation of fearless creators, Nevaeh has captured audiences with her soulful voice, confident performances, and powerful message of authenticity. From performing on school stages to collaborating with respected industry names, her journey reflects both passion and purpose. With standout singles like “I’ll Be Good” featuring Lucky Banks and “By Sundown” with hip-hop legend G-Dep, Nevaeh Flowers is proving she’s not just an artist to watch—she’s a movement in the making.

V-Henny: Your music blends R&B, pop, and hip-hop. How did you develop your sound, and what inspires the stories you tell through your music?

Nevaeh Flowers: My sound came from growing up around a mix of everything — old-school soul, R&B, hip-hop, and even the new wave of melodic pop. I never wanted to box myself in. I just wanted to create what felt real.

The stories in my music come from my life, my family, my community, and the emotions we don’t always say out loud. I write from a place of honesty, and I think that’s why people connect with it.

V-Henny: You’ve performed across schools and major stages. What performance or moment made you feel like you were truly stepping into your purpose?

Nevaeh Flowers: There was a moment performing at a school where the whole auditorium started singing my lyrics back to me. Hearing kids scream my name and look up to me with so much love — that was when I realized my purpose is bigger than music. I’m meant to inspire, uplift, and show them what’s possible.


V-Henny: “I’ll Be Good” with Lucky Banks and “By Sundown” with G-Dep each show different sides of your artistry. What was the creative process behind these collaborations?

Nevaeh Flowers: Working with Lucky Banks was pure energy. That’s also family. We wanted to create something fun, feel-good, and soulful. “I’ll Be Good” shows my playful rap vibe. Also , telling people not to worry about negative people or energy. You going to be good either way. 

With G-Dep, it was more storytelling and timeless hip-hop energy. “By Sundown” felt like honoring New York and honoring my brother K Shakes. Classic rap and blending it with my new-school voice. Both sessions taught me a lot about versatility.


V-Henny: You’re not just an artist — you’re an entrepreneur with Nolana Gardens, a brand that’s even in Walmart. What inspired you to build this brand, and what does it represent for your community?

Nevaeh Flowers: Nolana Gardens represents unity, healing, and youth empowerment. I built it because I wanted something bigger than myself — a brand that actually gives back to the community. Having it in Walmart shows what young people can accomplish when they dream big. It’s about positivity, health awareness, and letting kids still be kids. Even tho I’m still one too lol. 


V-Henny: In what ways do you hope your music and business uplift youth and promote empowerment?

Nevaeh Flowers: I want young people to feel seen. Whether through my lyrics or my brand, I want them to know their voice matters, their dreams matter, and their individuality is beautiful. If I can inspire even one kid to chase their passion or step into their purpose, then I’m doing my job.


V-Henny: As a rising artist, what challenges have shaped you the most, and how do you stay grounded through them?

Nevaeh Flowers: The biggest challenges were balancing school, business, and music, while also dealing with negativity or people doubting me. But I stay grounded through my family;  my mom and my pops. They both keep me motivated. I also remember why I started. Every challenge just pushes me to work harder and stay focused.


V-Henny: If someone listens to your music for the first time, what do you hope they walk away feeling or realizing about themselves?

Nevaeh Flowers: I want them to feel something — whether it’s confidence, comfort, empowerment, or healing. I hope my music reminds them that they’re not alone and that their story deserves to be heard just as much as mine.


V-Henny: What upcoming projects — musically or with Nolana Gardens — are you most excited for right now?

Nevaeh Flowers: Musically, I’m excited for my upcoming releases and visuals. I have my EP coming soon with some amazing features. I’m singing more so stay tuned for that. Im expanding my sound and performing more. With Nolana Gardens, we’re growing the brand, dropping new shades, new merch, and more community-focused projects. Big things are coming.


V-Henny: You give so much to your art, your brand, and your community. When the spotlight is off and it’s just you, what part of yourself are you still learning to honor or heal?

Nevaeh Flowers: I’m learning to honor my peace and my rest. As much as I give to people, I’m learning I deserve the same love and patience back. I’m still healing from moments where I felt overlooked or underestimated, but I use that to remind myself how far I’ve come.


V-Henny: Looking back at the younger version of Nevaeh, the one who first dreamed of singing, creating, and inspiring, what do you think she’d say about the woman you’ve become today?

Nevaeh Flowers: She’d be proud. She’d probably scream, “We did it!” I think she’d be amazed by the confidence, the growth, the consistency, and the impact I’m making. And she’d remind me to keep going — because this is only the beginning.
