#193 - Rosevile Sucks (Anthony Cronk)

n this episode, we sit down with Anthony, the creative force behind the music project "Rosevile Sucks." The name originated during his time living in Roseville, and even today, driving through the area serves as a humorous reminder of those experiences. Anthony is also part of the popular YouTube channel "Hivemind," which has broadened his horizons and introduced him to the world of football, despite his primary passion for music.

Anthony shares how joining "Hivemind" was more than just a job; it was a chance to connect with like-minded musicians. The instant chemistry he found with the team has been a rewarding part of his journey, as they share a love for similar music.

"Rosevile Sucks" has been making waves with new releases, including the track "If We Never Met," which dropped in January. Initially intimidated by lyric writing, Anthony has pushed himself out of his comfort zone, allowing his skills to grow. He finds inspiration in the most unexpected places—one line in his latest song even came from TikTok!

Over the past two years, the project has garnered a significant following, amassing a large number of monthly listeners. Anthony is determined not to let the pressures of the music industry hold him back; instead, he wants to keep sharing his work with the world. Despite being his own harshest critic, he assures listeners that more music is on the way.

At one point, Anthony considered stepping away from the project, grappling with self-doubt about whether he truly belonged in the music scene. However, he’s committed to collaboration moving forward, indicating that his solo work could take a backseat as he explores new creative partnerships.
