Russ Is In Desperate Need Of A ‘Break!’ But His Ambition Won’t Let Him Slow Down

There is no rest for the weary. Singer, rapper, actor , and author Russ knows this quite well. In fact, the “ Put You On Game ” musician’s latest song is all about it.

Today (August 16), Russ dropped a new single, “Break,” where he outlined just how overwhelming ambition can be. “I need a break / But I’m probably never gon’ get one / I need a break / I just been working makin’ the checks come / I need a break / Before I lose all of my marbles / Break / I cannot wait ’til tomorrow / Yeah, break,” raps Russ on the record’s chorus.

Despite his desperate pleads for a quick getaway, in the track’s opening verse, he explains why that will have to wait.

“Even on off days, gotta be on / Head of the family, take care of my mom / Welcome to bein’ a man I guess / Always knew this was the plan I guess / Covered in stress, tryna juggle this lifе / Payin’ the bills, but I’m payin’ the price / Wеlcome to bein’ a man I guess / Always knew this was the plan I guess / Yeah, work, work, work, work, work, I feel I’m RiRi / I need some balance, believe me / But it’s not easy, family needs me,” raps Russ.

Although Russ won’t take a pause from his chasing his goals, hopefully the track will serve as a wake-up call for others.
