Eighth grader, Roderick Chambers known as RaRaa3x creates new beats. You may not know this, but we have an accomplished rap artist here at Willkie. Rodderick Chambers (8th-grade) is known to his audience as RaRaa3x. He made his first song back in 2013, but his recent success came with the debut of "Spare None" by Blockboy Yungin featuring Diamond and RaRaa3x. It has reached YouTube success with over 43k views.
"My advice to other artists is to always believe in yourself and to never give up," said Roderick. Roderick finds his inspiration from his life and writes about things that have happened to him in the past because it's more personal. His favorite classes are ones where he can use electronics because he likes researching new things happening in the music industry. Roderick says he plans on dropping new beats this summer.
