A TRUMP-obsessed rapper has teased a run for political office and claimed the Republican presidential candidate is a "gangster" in an exclusive interview. Forgiato Blow, real name Kurt Juntz, a hip-hop artist from South Florida , has made a career out of his larger-than-life pro- Trump persona. Since releasing his first song in support of the Republican leader, 2016's Silver Spoon, Blow has become a distinctive figure at Donald Trump rallies.
He says he has received shoutouts from Trump at rallies and has recorded music supporting other figures on the right including Florida Congressman Matt Gaetz, and former White House spokeswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene. Blow recently had the honor of having his song used at the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. And The U.
S. Sun caught up with him inside the cavernous Fiserv Center that was hosting the RNC. READ MORE on DONALD TRUMP With his gold Donald Trump head chain and his $40,000 Maga ring, the rapper is hard to miss.
He also has a massive tattoo of Trump's face on his thigh. Describing himself as "Trump's Nephew" on social media, he said that he never got any negative feedback on his music when he rapped about "guns, drugs, and murder," or "gangs." But when he started rapping about Donald Trump and the Maga movement, Blow claims that he suddenly became a controversial figure.
Most read in The US Sun Blow says he has attended every single Trump rally during this current election season except one. That happened to be the rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, earlier this month where Trump was shot and one person was killed. Blow got his moment of triumph recently in Milwaukee when his song and video, Trump Trump Baby, was played on the first day of the RNC.
The playing of the music video, featuring rapper and model Amber Rose , came as a surprise even to Blow. Rose, who expressed her pro-Trump views this year, addressed the RNC earlier this month, where she claimed his supporters were her "people." Blow told The U.
S. Sun about the "issues" he had with getting the song made and claimed that Sony "tried to take it down," possibly over its similarities to Vanilla Ice's 1990 hit Ice Ice Baby. That song was controversial too for its uncredited sampling of the baseline from the 1981 song Under Pressure by Queen and David Bowie.
But Blow believed there was a different reason he encountered difficulties with the song. "Every time you speak the truth they try to bring you down," he said. Blow began his career in 2013, collaborating with mainstream names including Rick Ross , French Montana, and Kodak Black .
For that reason, he says it annoys him when people say that he raps about Trump "as a grift, to make money." In the music video for Silver Spoon, Blow can be seen wearing a Maga hat, and it was at this point that he started to "really pay attention to politics." "I already had super success before that.
I already had the Rolls Royce, the jewelry, the cars, the money, and the success," he said. Every time you speak the truth they try to bring you down. Now, he says he's focused on "doing what's good for your country.
" Describing himself as a "diehard" fan, he says he was originally drawn to the Maga leader as a "businessman," and because he was from Florida, where Trump has his Mar-A-Lago residence. "I liked the flash, the cars, the beautiful women, the jewelry," he said. "I mean, Trump's a boss, and when you're trying to be a rapper you have to be like a boss!" But he said it was after Trump got into office in 2016 that he realized "how corrupt" politics is.
Back then, he says, he was getting a lot of bookings from Republicans to perform at events. And after 2020, he says the Covid lockdowns and vaccine mandates, as well as a social media ban, solidified his political views. "This is the fight, every single day, as a conservative," he said.
Blow says that while it would be "amazing" if Trump directly acknowledged his song, he knows that "he sees me" and has met him numerous times. But he adds that he is trying to shift the culture, and for that reason, "I don't need a birthday party from Donald Trump. "I'm trying to help him the way I can help him win the election.
" DONALD Trump closed the Republican National Convention on July 18, telling supporters he wanted to become president for "all Americans. Implementing tax cuts, including no tax on tips Protecting Social Security and Medicare - Trump said 'incomes will skyrocket and the middle class will prosper like never before' Protecting borders - He pledged to end the 'border nightmare.' That means two things on day one - 'Drill baby Drill,' as he said, and close the borders Finishing building the wall Keeping our 'sons and daughters safe' Replenishing the military and building a military 'dome' - Trump insisted he could stop wars with just a phone call and said no military would be able to penetrate the USA if he came into office Ending the war in Ukraine and imposing tariffs on Iran Vowing to "beat" China Working to decrease prices and ease inflation Bringing down the cost of energy Making cities 'safe, clean and beautiful' again Making it possible for Americans to buy gas-run cars by ending the electric vehicle mandate on the first day of his presidency Does that mean he would consider running for political office or even serving in a possible Trump administration in the future? "If me and him end up doing something cool together one day that's cool," he said.
"I'll probably run for something when I'm 40," he added. "I'm 39 so it's getting close! "But I mean, I work with a lot of different politicians. Marjorie Taylor Green, Matt Gaetz.
