DESCRIPTION:
This up-tempo track brings together a signature stylistic blend that’s hard to categorize; combining the talents of hip hop artist Jarobi White of A Tribe Called Quest, alternative R&B vibe of singer/songwriter Trent Park, and Starita’s eclectic mix of electronic music and acoustic instruments.

‘Rules’ is the first single in the debut EP, Starita – For the Record, speaking to that can-do (and will-do, damn it) spirit, which dares to defy odds and break the ‘rules’ of music genres. The music video executes on this message of breaking barriers and conventions through its creative visual elements.

Collaborators in fashion lifestyle and footwear include the notable brands Upper Playground, Benny Gold, Faze Apparel, The Hundreds, Infinite SF, Bait, and Ubi-IND Denim; debuting uniquely styled outfits that showcases the progressive, creative, fearless, zealous, and fierceness in all of us.
