In a recent interview, rapper Lil Rob spoke with Justin Hunte about his upbringing in a small Mexican neighborhood in San Diego called La Colonia at Eden Gardens. He discussed his childhood growing up in a tight-knit community of family and friends, where his childhood home was a house his grandmother constructed from leftover wood from the racetrack where his grandfather worked. Growing up, Lil Rob was exposed to different musical genres through his older siblings. From breakdancing to party DJing, the influence of his family played a pivotal role towards his music career. Lil Rob reminisced about how he handed out his first vinyl as a teenager in Tijuana, beginning his journey in hip-hop that he still carries forward today. His upbringing, coupled with the influence of his family and the vibrant culture of his hometown, shaped the artist Lil Rob is today. To hear more, including Lil Rob speaking about his biggest song, "Summer Nights," hit the full interview above.

S/O to Vlad TV for getting Hispanic OGs on here. Hispanics that don't make us look bad, real representative right here. 💯
Don’t make us look bad? Lil Rob is not even a real gangster he ain’t no sureño but he portrays to be a wannabe gangster.* Bruh

You got it all wrong homeboy. He’s the only one that has been keep it real this whole time. You don’t have to be a gangster or sureño ect to keep it real.

My son is 40 now and he was a Northerner as a kid. He had a secret. He really liked Lil Rob!! He ended up doing great in life.
i live in LA but i love Woodie Raps from Antioch.
GG to your son, it is a thin line between doing great in life and doing life if you join gangs
Who tf says northerner
@@dnice213 someone who is not a gang banger, and is talking to other people who are also not gang bangers. IT is simply the translation of nortenjo into english
@dnice213 Do a stint in the CDC system and you’ll find out real quick Joe Shmoh.
This man has good values good mature mentality …. Nowadays people idolize the wrong kind of message … glad to see him talk positivity and not be afraid to be himself
The GOAT of Chicano Rap. Stays in his lane and drama free. Glad Lil Rob is getting some exposure almost 20-30 years later. His album has some bangers too.
Goat? 😂 How so?
@@nelsonlopez9214What do you mean how so? Real 1’s grew up listening to lil rob on the radio… to us he’s one of the goats
@nelsonlopez9214 lol bro those who know, really know. No explanation needed. Music sells itself.
Haters gona hate much love to rob
@@Robgeee you couldn't even answer a simple question. Says it all.
I’m watching this right next to the pacific to be specific
That’s so terrific why not act so horrific or stay perrific
Me too. Lolol.

@@m.thegreat2136shut up
Called the ruca on the phone, let her know I'm home alone
Lil Rob an OG for sure. Ain’t actin like these weirdos now a days, bro always kept it G.
I used to listen to his music when I was a young kid. Damn, time flies! I’m happy to see that Lil Rob is doing good and that he brings a chill vibe. His music will always be great to me. People throwing things at him and talking trash to him and he still stays chillin, those people that only cares about where he is from are the definition of haters, low life’s, etc etc. Keep doing you Lil Rob 👍 👌 🙏.

Shout out to Robert Flores. I went to elementary school with him and he was always a cool guy.

It was about time homie lil rob interview was long over due
I was just listening to Crazy Life the other day too. Dope interview. Rob has always been one of my favourites. I grew up on his music man, I found him in Lowrider magazine back in the day. Listening to Rob in the Caprice with the lady, almost 20yrs later and we still bumping his albums together. Classics. Much love homie, peace from a Canadian Hiphop nerd.

Never really gave lll rob a chance but after the interview he ls such a solid good dude!
Lil Rob is a legend 💯
I grew up in Jersey and east coast hiphop was my thing and other than Dre, I was not a fan of west coast rap. When I got to stationed in SD, back in 2000. This was when I first heard Lil Rob and I surprisingly love his music. Mad respect to him after this interview, he has been representing since day one. You got to applaud this dude man. Keep it up Lil Rob.
I grew up in Chicago, Illinois Lil Rob, and chicano rap was all I listened to. Much respect to this man 🙌
Lil rob was not a trouble maker you can tell !! I use to listen to his music back in the day !! This was nostalgic !! Simon raza
Prayers up for all Roberts, includes you...thank you for your honesty and kindness towards my family
Thank you for showing me the performances too. Thank God you didn't damage your spine
Vlad not doing this Interview is so disrespectful.... Even Yung Joc and the Ying Yang Twins!! It seems like he Truly doesnt fuck with Rappers... Im sure there's a few other rappers he didn't wanna Interview Himself..
I'm not going to lie... I feel the same way, too. This guy's interview questions are all over the place instead of Vlad starting from the beginning to controversies and now. The disrespect! This could have been more.
Im 33 and I've been listening to LR since i was 6 haha Crazy.. Living Legend ✊🏽💯🇲🇽🇺🇸
Great interview!
Dawg Is A Real Gangsta Bro Really Made BangerZ 💙🔥
Lil' Rob the OG great to see him on here! He's always been a stand up guy! What I love about him IS the RESPECT he does show and always keeps it positive! He talks about his times that weren't so good but how no matter what he weaves his way out of the negative and still goes towards a positive! Much Love and RESPECT Lil' Rob! Great interview!
I love lil Rob. I’m from Orange County califas. This foo is a legend
That line on spending money on impala parts and not finishing projects hits different lol boy!
Haha I felt that. Lil Rob knows the struggle of building a low low.
I love how he talks .. ❤
My older cousins had Kid Frost .. We had Lil Rob!! Listening to crazy life on the Sony Walkman on the way to school!! Lil Rob & Mr Shadow colabs we sick !!
Im in the Netherlands (hollanda) and I've heard his music played OUT HERE was a nice suprise coming from Cali my self but I never got 1 chance to meet him back there and he aint coming to europe ever though I wish yall would, you would get soo many sales out here.
Shout-Out Mr.Shadow From San Diego 💯
Avenida revolucion was the party place to be in the 90s, great memories but also fights at any given moment it got so packed with people. I still bump lil rob crazy life to this day 🤙
Yeaaaa homie ! Thats what tf im talkin about

Lil rob is on of my favorite rappers hin and SPM
Much love from south jersey homie \m/
Boom! Great interview
I never thought Mexican can rap. Till I hear summer night. Lil rob is reason why I started to listen to Chicano rap.
Any Black Mariachi, or Black Tejano Genres.
Tf is tejano genre@@MikeJones-pf4wd
@@cachifli870Texas Spanish music
Solid dude
Lil Rob from Eden Gardens where I grew up. Talking about the bluebird and market cafe. Brings back memories.
I live in Fresno, hope to go see lil Rob some day.
A wise man right here that stayed in his lane and stayed out of trouble now look how far he’s gotten.
"Member only" punching the air right now 😂
There will never be a Mexican better than him and kid frost
FREE SPM
Sick Jacken and Vel The Wonder.
Frank V
King Lil G
None of these, Sick Jack but he got no radio hits.
I can see why he only hangs connects with certain people. He is very community oriented and family. I think others around him in the past showed him what he didn't want to be and kept his Raza agenda moving forward. Where he is from is pretty much gentrified.
LEGEND
Unfortunately 50 and I can remember listening Lil Ron back in junior high give me anything you should ever since run he's representing Chicano rap from jump Street. Glad to see he's doing good is it still alive and kicking.🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽
OG LIL-ROB#1
OG Lil Rob 💯‼️👏🏽
I remember bumping his albums when I was 13-14 getting into trouble & loving his style. 20yrs later I'm still down for Lil Rob & legit married a lookalike hahaha I love My Pelon😍😍😍 & will forever be a fan of my troubled teen crush!
I'm born and raised in SD , lived all over the county .. I've NEVER heard of "Eden gardens " ?!? Solana beach is already small . Where the hell ?!?
Not just Chicano Rap one of the best out of the whole Westcoast
Been listening since 2000. Favorite Chicano rapper. #1 Chicano rapper
Lil Rob keep doing your thing fam. Love from Boston.
Who remembers "these Cortez shoes" I had all the colors even grey vinyl and all white with silver check they was fyee
Listened in middle school lol the last wave of bangers in LA, so impressionable is and was our youth
Grew Up Listening to Lil Rob in the 90’s💯. That Crazy Life Album is a Classic💯! Been Following His Music Throughout the Years. I’m Glad He’s Still Making Music🎶. Hope One Day I Get the Chance to Meet this Great Artist🎙️. In My Book He’s a Legend! Always Have Kept It Respectfully With His Music🎶
I’m 44 lifelong San Diegan I’ve never been to Solana Beach. But there isn’t a bad area within 50 miles
This is 35 yrs ago tho bro. Look for the clip when he’s rapping at 14 yrs old in his hood. Looks like a struggling working neighborhood
Summer Nights is still by far and away my most favorite lowrider anthem
Like Mariah made a Christmas anthem lil rob made a summer anthem
Why didn't Vlad do the interview?
Solid vato
Hope he sees this, wonder if he remembers my Tio Moe Moe rip
I used to listen to him back when he was on low profile records
Lil Rob you are my FAVORITE! ❤ I got my big brother to listen to your music 😊 and we vibe to your songs 🥰
My hat off to you Mr.Lil Rob. Much respect.
One great INTERVIEW 👍 👌 👏 🙌 😀 💯🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽 on DJ VLAD 💯💯💯💯💯💯💯
What Lil Rob didn’t want to say is that back in the 80’s here in San Diego only the urban Ghetto’s saw the epidemic kick off which was communities that had Brown and Black people. Eden Gardens was a small piece of land surrounded by affluent white people and Rob and his people where the work force for a majority of that area. Very little to no black people there. If you came down to South East San Diego or East Side San Diego we had it all. Heroin, crack, Sherman, weed ect.
Facts
I know all the haters watching this. Too many Chicano rappers are jealous of Lil Rob’s success
Thanks Vlad for interviewing this Living Legend. Vlad tv is legit about the Culture💪💪💪
Damn it be cool af to meet lil rob one day always liked his music my favorite songs are “still riding like that” and “just one of those days” cant for get “summer nights” 👍
Dope!!!!
Finally!
Love it thank you for recognizing Hispanic talent.. ❤❤❤
Being born and raised in SD, it’s crazy to me that he’s from Solana Beach. Would have never guessed that.
Same
Solana wasn't how it is now, especially now, there's a video on RUclips if you search Eden gardens 1992, when he was a kid you can see how it was, even now the old Mexican families are being bought out, there's.lioe 5-6 construction projects here in E.G going over old homes making them these fucking modern condos..fucking sucks
I was tripping out when i passed by last weekend. Didn’t expect to see such a wealthy community. But you're right, things must’ve changed throughout the years.
Theres very few chacanos rappers that put it down so classy for our culture..not all gangbanging on the mic homeboy grew up like all of us that was in the game, well some of us anyway!! Much respect g from that 801 SALT LAKE CITY 🙌
great interview
Summer night anthem
remember meeting Rob when I was 15
Shiiit come on Lil rob!!!!
My crazy life album was the first time I’ve heard of lil rob I was 8
The Legend
ESE LIL ROB!!!! SALUDOS!!!
It's all love and respect 🙏....u respect me I respect u ...💯💪👍
Is this Remo from No Jumper doing the interview trynna Mess with the pitch to be undercover??
I never seen his eyes. Ever
lmao
NEIGHBORHOOD MUSIC💯💯✊🏽
This was good but vlad just has a way of really connecting and I think it would of been better if he was interviewing.
He ain't No Jay Z of Chicano rap He's Lil Rob the GOAT in Chicano Rap Game in His Own Lane Brown Pride 💯
Terrible interviewer. It shows how little preparation was done for this. Vlad we need you and only you to do these interviews, please.
Man, some people just arent entertaining in interviews... was excited for this one but im out like 15 mins in lol
It’s the interviewer
Solana Beach is a rich neighborhood in San diego by the beach
