Let The Work Do The Talking – An Interview with Ju Murray of Creative Krew, LLC.
For those who are familiar with Kendrick Murray, also known as Ju, they can all agree on one thing in particular, even if they have never met: He ain’t going to say much, but he will get the job done!
“Im not much of a talker,” he explains in our sit-down one-on-one, “and I would rather be behind the camera, than in front of it.” The latter is actually one of the easiest behaviors to spot if you are trying to tell the difference between Ju and his identical twin brother, who is known as Blacc Benni, an up-and-coming Texas lyricist. So, as you can see, being involved in the arts, runs in the family.
So how was growing up with an identical twin? Studies show the odds of this phenomenon occurring every 3 to 4 times in every 1000 births, worldwide. I couldn’t help myself. I had to ask the question. You know the question. Did they ever pull a “Parent Trap”- like switch? “We used to switch classes. I would take a test for him, or him for me. My mom used to dress us the same, and no one could tell us apart,” he laughs. “It was cool at first because I could get away with stuff, he would get away with stuff….People would walk up to us and have a whole conversation, and we wouldn’t know what they were talking about because they were under the impression they were speaking to the other brother.” As they grew into their own, they started to personalize their appearance, as well as embrace their differences.
Although both are tech-savvy, Ju has a calling when it comes to creative artistry. It’s apparent in his designs, whether hand-drawn or digital. Over the years, he has worked to develop his skill, eventually turning it into a service, Judigitalworks.com. His work has been featured in a museum, as well as published as he is the creator of the No Offense Magazine cover for Black History Month, February 2023.
“I went to Andrew College, a junior college in Georgia. I actually got a scholarship by drawing. Then I actually drew again, for my brother, and he got a scholarship as well, so we both had the scholarships. But we were young. I wasn’t prepared for it. The first year was rough, and I ended up dropping out and joining the military (Air Force). But I’ve been in art my whole life. My mother draws. I kind of pulled it from her, took it, and ran with it. Being that I’m an ‘IT (Information Technology) guy’, learning new programs come easily to me. So I took that and put it together, and came up with what I do.”
What he came up with was Creative Krew, LLC, the company and brand that Ju owns and works under. “We strive to be the best at everything. We want everything to be top-notch.” Quality is a requirement, and he makes sure nothing leaves to be delivered to a client without it. His ability to create and visualize a design, and then transfer that design to a medium we all can see is remarkable to say the least. Ju describes his process when working with a client in detail, which you can see in our interview being released the same day as this issue, and by scanning the QR code at the end of the article.
It doesn’t just stop at the pen though. As mentioned previously, Ju knows his way around a camera. Not only is he certified in Cannon Photography, but he is the director behind many music videos shot In his area. In addition to his brother, Blacc Benni, Ju has worked with upcoming artists such as Cartel Zeke and Chris Garza along with many others, to bring their vision to life. It has gotten him a reputation of exceeding expectations, as well as brought plenty of opportunities to demonstrate his skill. His cover art concepts have helped many artists present their music on digital streaming platforms, social media, and other distribution outlets.
There is no doubt about it: Ju is headed for greatness and is already well on his way. If not working diligently to complete a project or spending time with his beautiful family, Ju can most likely be found in the gym. It’s no secret that “Ju” and “Gym” go together like “cereal” and “milk”. The consistency he applies to his routine is the same consistency he instills in his work, and is making him a household name, one project at a time.
It is an honor to call Ju a member of The No Offense Network and he is certainly a very valuable member of the team. This is why he has made the cover of this issue, and we look forward to seeing the continued growth and success of this talented, but also skilled, entrepreneur. Here’s to you, Ju!
K-Rino and the South Park Coalition: A Journey of Creativity, Ethics, and Growth
In a recent interview, K-Rino, a prominent figure in the music industry, sat down with an interviewer from No Offense Magazine to discuss his career, the South Park Coalition, and his thoughts on the future of the music industry. This insightful conversation shed light on various aspects of K-Rino’s journey, including his artistic process, his commitment to ethical values, and his continuous growth as an artist. Let’s delve into the details of this captivating interview and explore the key takeaways.
One of the fascinating highlights from the interview was the origin story of the South Park Coalition (SPC). K-Rino explained that the name was inspired by a neighborhood in Houston called South Park, to which he added “Coalition” after coming across the word in a book. Little did he know that this simple combination would eventually become a global phenomenon, resonating with people from different generations. K-Rino expressed gratitude for the unexpected success of the SPC and emphasized the beauty of different generations connecting through their shared knowledge and love for the music.
I posed a thought-provoking question about how K-Rino has managed to maintain his ethical values throughout his career, especially in the face of evolving musical trends. K-Rino responded by emphasizing the importance of being true to oneself and continually striving to be innovative. He acknowledged the need to stay informed about current trends but also stressed the significance of staying grounded in one’s passion for the art form. He compared it to playing basketball, where love for the game always comes first, and any financial success that follows is secondary. K-Rino also discussed the ongoing process of learning and adapting to the ever-changing business and technological aspects of the music industry.
The interview touched upon the challenge of remaining authentic while being open to critique. K-Rino shared valuable insights gained from his years of experience, cautioning against becoming too complacent due to early praise. He highlighted the importance of being aware that not everyone will appreciate an artist’s work, and learning how to handle criticism gracefully. He advised against engaging in arguments with fans, as it is a battle that cannot be won and only diminishes one’s own stature. K-Rino emphasized the necessity of embracing growth, both creatively and personally, and encouraged younger artists to learn about the business side of the industry early on.
The interview concluded with a discussion about K-Rino’s aspirations for the future. He expressed a desire to witness artists’ growth in their understanding of the impact their music has on others. K-Rino called for a shift towards writing more meaningful and positive content that uplifts listeners, rather than glorifying negative and degenerative lifestyles. He emphasized that this transition would not only lead to personal growth but also grant artists more control over their artistic direction and independence. K-Rino acknowledged the resistance from industry heads who may prefer a different agenda but stressed the importance of staying true to one’s values.
The interview with K-Rino provided valuable insights into the journey of an artist who has remained steadfast in his commitment to creativity, ethics, and growth. Through his experiences with the South Park Coalition and his personal evolution, K-Rino has emerged as a mentor figure, sharing wisdom with younger artists and encouraging them to embrace their unique voices while navigating the challenges of the music industry. As we reflect on this interview, we are reminded of the power of art to inspire, connect, and shape the world in profound ways.
