His early inspirations were G-Unit, 50 Cent and Eminem. At the end of August 2016 Russ became known in the Polish media. His clip ‘Losin Control’ (from February 2016) was accused of being a plagiarism of the clip ‘The Fib’ (released in September 2015) created for the song of Polish electronic music group Rysy. The alleged similarities relate to the script, characters, film techniques, shots and scenes.

“A triple threat of the finest order, all we wanna know about Russ is if he can dance too. A singer, producer, and rapper, the Soundcloud God in the making drops singles like Donald Drumpf at Magic City. Although ATL is his origin, Russ was born in New Jersey, and spent his childhood living in various places all over the States. This constant motion and rich body of influences has clearly made a monster out of Russ Vitale. He’s an independent artist with enough hustle to make the rap game afraid for dear life. Selling out shows worldwide on his own, Russ has already gotten co-signs from the likes of Kylie Jenner and Waka Flocka Flame. Manifest destiny.” ( HNHH.com )
