In this episode of Spearhead Conversations, host Xavier Mercado sits down with Milwaukee artist and producer Richie P. Goldchain to explore his journey, creative process, and the experiences that have shaped his career.
Richie discusses how his Southern roots and Milwaukee upbringing influenced both his personal identity and musical style. From digging through his father’s record collection to creating music with friends in high school, his passion for sound developed early.
He highlights the values that guide his work—authenticity, collaboration, and a deep commitment to community. Richie also shares how these principles have helped him grow as both an artist and a producer.
From winning “Best Rap” at the Shepherd Express to building a supportive local scene, Richie reflects on key milestones and his motivation to give back. Looking ahead, he envisions more collaborations, bigger stages, and inspiring the next generation of creatives.
