Meet Ceno RudeBoy

We caught up with the brilliant and insightful Ceno RudeBoy a few weeks ago and have shared our conversation below.

Ceno, looking forward to learning from your journey. You’ve got an amazing story and before we dive into that, let’s start with an important building block. Where do you get your work ethic from?
The Genesis of Grit: Ceno RudeBoy’s Unwavering Work Ethic

In the heart of his upbringing, where dreams were nurtured and futures shaped, Ceno RudeBoy found the bedrock of his indomitable work ethic. His father, an entrepreneurial spirit by nature, etched in young Ceno a blueprint for success. Through the lens of his watchful eyes, he watched his father build and conquer, establishing a thriving business empire from the ground up. His father’s relentless pursuit of excellence imprinted a crucial lesson: the no-handout philosophy. He was raised to understand that dependency on others was not an option; one had to carve their path.

However, life’s lessons often come with contrasts. On the other side of the spectrum was his mother, tirelessly navigating various jobs, the relentless grind etched on her face. Her resilience painted a different portrait in Ceno’s young mind – the life of a regular job was a path he vehemently swore to evade.

In the symphony of these dual influences, Ceno found his own melody. An early love for music began to crescendo, drowning out the humdrum of ordinary life. He was irresistibly drawn to the art, a muse he couldn’t ignore. The concept of toiling away at a traditional job became anathema to him; music was his destiny.

Yet, the journey was not without its dissonance. Well-meaning voices, echoing the safety of the conventional, advised him to seek higher education and a safety net. They believed he should tread the well-trodden path of college and a 9-to-5 job. But Ceno, with unwavering conviction, saw only a future filled with music and entrepreneurship. The prospect of a desk job was inconceivable; it didn’t align with his purpose.

Education in music was a blend of formal training and self-discovery. Full Sail University offered the technical foundation, but the real artistry unfolded outside its walls. He honed his skills through hands-on experience, learning from friends who engineered and captivating audiences with freestyle performances, leaving those who listened in awe.

There’s no singular story that fuels Ceno’s relentless drive; it’s a variety of experiences, emotions, and an innate need for self-expression. The act of crafting lyrics and arranging words in unique ways became his sanctuary. It was his refuge to pour out his soul, to be understood without judgment. Even if no one listened, hearing his own words back affirmed he was on the right path.

Through the ups and downs, friends and fans became his support system. They believed in his music and his journey, making him realize that the art he created resonated with others. Milestones marked his path, successful album releases, and the trust of a team that allowed him to curate their projects. As the go-to source of advice in the industry, Ceno’s strong work ethic stands tall – he gets the job done, no excuses, no shortcuts, just unwavering commitment.

Ceno RudeBoy embodies a work ethic forged in the fires of ambition and self-determination, a testament to the power of passion and the refusal to bow to convention. In the world of music, he’s not just an artist; he’s an embodiment of the resolute spirit, proving that dreams, when pursued with unwavering resolve, can indeed become reality.

Thanks, so before we move on maybe you can share a bit more about yourself?
Ceno RudeBoy: Crafting Dreams, Forging Music

In the vibrant tapestry of the music industry, there exists a name that stands as a testament to the power of passion, dedication, and unrelenting creativity.

Ceno’s story begins with a vision that refused to be confined. Growing up, he witnessed the entrepreneurial spirit in action, thanks to his father’s unwavering dedication to building a thriving business. The lessons of self-reliance, resilience, and the ‘no-handout’ philosophy were etched into his very being.

It was amidst this backdrop of contrasting experiences, where his mother tirelessly navigated various jobs, that Ceno’s own dreams began to take shape. He knew early on that the path of a traditional job was not for him. Instead, the siren call of music, its melodies, and the art of self-expression beckoned.

From the age of 8, Ceno RudeBoy’s journey into the world of music had begun. He was captivated by the art of writing and rapping, initially drawn to impress his older cousins with his freestyling skills. It was an innate talent that found its roots in the love for storytelling and the power of words.

While his education in music received a formal boost at Full Sail University, Ceno’s true learning happened outside the classroom. It was through hands-on experiences, watching friends engineer, and the thrill of crafting his own music that his artistry flourished. The classroom laid the technical foundation, but the stage of life became his true classroom.

For Ceno, music was not just a career choice; it was a refuge, a sanctuary where he could express his innermost thoughts, fears, hopes, and dreams. It was the medium through which he communicated his soul, unabashed and unfiltered. Through his lyrics and melodies, he found a voice that resonated not only with himself but with others who listened.

It was this unique ability to connect, to touch the hearts of listeners, that fueled his passion for music. He didn’t just create songs; he wove stories that became anthems of self-expression and empowerment. Even when no one was listening, Ceno’s music became his own reassurance that he was on the right path.

In the world of music, the journey is often solitary, but it is rarely walked alone. Ceno RudeBoy’s support system came in the form of friends and fans who believed in his music and his vision. They saw not just an artist but a storyteller who could change lives through his craft.

If you had to pick three qualities that are most important to develop, which three would you say matter most?
Three qualities that were most important to me was remaining a student, blocking out the noise, and never taking no for an answer. My advise for anyone early in their journey is to always remember your vision is your vision. It’s no one else’s responsibility to see your vision as they have their own eyes, vision and outlook on the world. Rather someone believes in you or not should not shape your journey. It is your duty to believe in the vision that came to you that got you on this path in the first place and to show others through action how to turn your dream into a reality. Also remember not to compare yourself to others as they are not you and you are not them, everyone has their time and path. What may work for you wont necessarily work for someone else so keep that in mind when you see something work in favor for some one else. Feel free to use others as motivation, but never let their position dictate how you feel about yourself and where you “should” be. You are exactly where you are supposed to be and the trials that your going through may catapult you further than you could ever imagine. Remember the life you chose may not look exactly how you imagined but its all a part of the process. Try not to get so caught up in the the “goal” that you forget to enjoy the process. Everything happens for a reason, take your L’s as lessons and think about those as test to get you prepared for whats to come, giving up isn’t an option no matter how hard it gets. You dont lose until you quit, everyday you wake up is another chance to go out there and get it done.

Before we go, maybe you can tell us a bit about your parents and what you feel was the most impactful thing they did for you?
The most impactful thing my parents have done for me was to allow me to be me. Even with the fears they may have had for me, the type of person I was born to be took those fears and prepared me for what was to come. Their fears weren’t mine, but I am grateful for them because they brought ideas to my head that I probably would’ve never thought of. So I was able to prepare for the worst by thinking of a way to overcome an obstacle that I wasn’t even faced with. As long as I could make sense out of it then I knew I would be fine. I embraced others fears because it taught me to think outside the box and say, well if this does happen here’s what I’ll do. As a youngin, not having much experience in the world would have me thinking nothing could go wrong, they say you don’t know what you don’t know, so particularly my moms fears and her questioning me “but what about this, but what if this happened,” I was able to problem solve before the problem even came about.
