Juan Rodriguez (First Protest, First Blood)

By Samuel  
Produced under SourceLine Mediai × UnpluggedMale

This one is personal.
This ain’t a story from a documentary or a news clip  this is Bushwick ’88 from the eyes of a kid mentored by a king who never made it home.

Juan Rodriguez wasn’t my blood 
he was my mentor, my OG, my guide when Bushwick was burning from every direction.

Before hashtags.
Before marches got televised.
Before people pretended to care…

There was Juan.
Teaching pride, teaching survival, teaching Black-Brown unity before the world had the words for it.

When they killed him and called it a “mistake,”
that was the first time I picked up a protest sign.
The first time I screamed someone’s name for justice.
The first time I realized zip codes decide fate.

This record is for Juan.
For the marchers.
For Bushwick before the lattes and bike lanes.

Our Philosophy

At SourceLine Mediai, artificial intelligence is treated as an instrument, not an author. Every sound, lyric, and concept originates from human direction guided by the creative vision of The Architect  and SourceLine’s team of producers and writers.
AI tools serve only to assist in sound design, arrangement, or inspiration. The soul of every work remains human.

(Represented by SourceLine Mediai  A  A.I.-Powered Production Company) The Architect is a visionary creative who entered the industry on his own timeline  a late starter who studied life before he studied sound. His decades of experience traveling the world, navigating culture, and understanding human emotion now shape a musical signature that fuses cinematic hip-hop, R&B soul, and pop orchestration.

Under his direction, SourceLine Mediai operates as both a creative lab and production company, leveraging artificial intelligence (1and human innovation  to design, produce, and launch commercially viable music and visual campaigns.
