FVTV original interview · Recorded October 29, 2026

BUBBIE IS INVESTING IN CHARLESTON. HE WANTS THE CITY TO SEE WHAT HE'S BUILDING.

The South Carolina artist discusses Geechee roots, his own recording setup and how far independence can take him.

Getting a hometown artist recognized in Charleston is a fight, and BUBBIE is in it. He pulls up on Shordy Raw to talk about the city, Geechee identity, the culture behind his work and why he chose to put real money back into the music.

WHY HE BUILT HIS OWN STUDIO

BUBBIE didn't sit around waiting on somebody to make space for him. He bought into the equipment and made recording part of his own operation. He also breaks down what it takes to get better visuals behind an independent drop.

The goal list is clear. Stronger distribution, stronger marketing, and more traditional music videos to put some weight behind the records.
