We'd been on the phone for two hours before I even hit record. So bro is cranky, but in his defense, it was late. Meet Dresoglo (@Dresoglobal), the South Carolina rapper with 356 tracks on SoundCloud, his own coined subgenre, and a weekend in Lil Yachty's actual house as one of the first 12 in his Discord. The industry hasn't caught up yet. We did. It was 4AM when we finally wrapped.
The Sound
Q: You know that "No Panties" song on your SoundCloud, I hadn't heard it until tonight. What's that sound?
A: I was at my friend's house, on TikTok, heard the original, "Ain't Got No Panties On" by Wax A Million — and I was like, I would rap my ass off on that beat.
Where It Started
Q: I caught on to the creativity early. Where did it start for you?
A: I grew up with muscle and skin disease, bro. I really couldn't be outside with other kids, couldn't play sports. So I just got drawn to real music. Being a skater, being stuck, different from your average Black kid growing up. I got drawn to artists that went outside the box. Made their own lane. I just stuck with that.
The Influences
Q: Who are your influences? You mentioned your mom, what was she playing?
A: She was playing everything, bro. UGK to Gucci Mane. I remember hearing that bass. Hearing rap music early. That 2000s rap really influenced everything. And in the South, bro, you're really desensitized to so much at a young age. My mama used to just ride around with me, play music all day. At the time I was so young I didn't really know what it was saying, but it sounded good. Then I grew up and realized what it was actually talking about, like, damn, I probably shouldn't have been listening to that. But you know, in the South you really can't help it.
For me it started with my babysitter, Cuban girl, had her playing Nelly in the car. That shit stayed with me. That's where the 2000s thing begins for both of us.
Q: R&B specifically is a big one for you.
A: I listen to R. Kelly religiously. I don't give a fuck. He's one of the greatest to ever do it.
It's 2026, cancel culture? Nonexistent.
Slide Music
Q: So Slide Music, how'd that come into play?
A: I just love R&B. I was like, fuck it, let me just rap on R&B beats. But before I even coined slide music, I dropped an album called I Can Rap On Anything. Just all kinds of random beats. Different genres, weird shit. I just kept going from there. And then I got into the Neptunes, Pharrell and Chad, bro, those beats still sound new to this day. They sound like they're from '09 but they sound like the future somehow. That matched my flow perfectly. So I just kept doing it.
Q: You were self-producing some of those, right?
A: Yeah. The slide era. And I feel like it's not finished. I feel like if I keep that going, I can really do something with it. Put some visuals behind it. Keep it moving.
356 Tracks Deep
Q: You're not following anything. That's clear from the catalog. 356 tracks.
A: I'm not trying to be like nobody else. I'm not trying to follow. I used to, you know, when Teejayx6 was coming out, I was doing scam rap and all that. But as I got older and matured, I realized I'm really good at this. I can just do my own shit.
The Yachty Room
Q: The Lil Yachty tag on some of your songs, you mentioned he actually flew you out. How'd that happen?
A: We were the first 12 in his Discord. He made us moderators. And from that, bro, I really hung out with my favorite rapper for two days. Went to his actual house. Played my music for them. They fucked with it. And that means a lot. People at that caliber, they recognize. It's surreal. A lot of people would never get to experience that. Like I was really in rooms with millionaires.
Q: Does being that close to it change the motivation?
A: When I got back home, I realized, I got that close to actually being on. And that made me understand something: being in tune with what you believe in, and being active online, that gets you places. That's what got me in the room. Not a label. Not a cosign. Just being there, being consistent, doing what I love.
The End Goal
Q: 356 tracks, your own subgenre, and you're still just doing what you love. What's the end goal?
A: I just love being different, bro. That's it.
356 tracks isn't a catalog, it's a foundation. Proximity to stardom is one thing, but staying active once you leave the room is what actually builds the house. Dre isn't waiting for the industry to give him a seat. He's already built the room.
