Meet Ronald (JusMula) Knight | Artist/Foreign Exchange Trader

We had the good fortune of connecting with Ronald (JusMula) Knight and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Ronald (JusMula), can you walk us through the thought-process of starting your business?
It started off as a gift and something that took on a life of its own, but as time went by I realized that there needs to be some structure to my artistry. That way I could assure that my future and whoever inherits the legacy, from my bloodline hopefully, will reap the benefits of my early decision making.

Let’s talk shop? Tell us more about your career, what can you share with our community?
I believe what sets me apart from others is my ability to adapt to any climate, and still be able to operate on all cylinders. I work beautifully on the 12th hour, but getting to this point was not easy. It took well over 20,000 hours to perfect my flow and how I overcame that challenge was through a relentless focus, plus blocking out any negative comment, quote, or opinion from anyone outside of my nucleus. One good lesson I learned is that I know nothing and every day has something new for me to discover, between the madness of it all. I would like the world to know that I’m not just here to rap to you, I’m actually giving you clues that helped my mentality manifest into a better version of who I always wanted to be, and it’s possible for you to do it as well, as long as you start soon and stick to the path in front of you. ~Fin

If you had a friend visiting you, what are some of the local spots you’d want to take them around to?
My town is a small town so when we want to have a good time that’s out of the norm we travel to the capital, which is Hartford. If you like to eat they have tons of selections that vary from all cultures. The Downtown area is full of pubs and clubs depending on what type of night you’re looking for. I could name a few but there are so many that you will probably end up bar hopping, in a small area, and not notice you’ve hit at least 3 of them. In my point of view, my state has lots of lands that hold historical value, even my hometown was once a major supplier of Brass, which provided gainful employment for many families during the wars. My town is the last stop on the Metro-North which brings you directly into New York with one connector train in Bridgeport. Let us not forget about the vast bodies of water that surround and run through specific towns, if you are into calm tranquility you can find it in certain small towns for sure.

Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
First, I wanna thank my mother for putting the radio to her stomach, before I was born, giving me that first inspiration to be creative with words and rhythm. Grandma Hazel for taking care of us when things got really rough. My Aunt Baby for telling me that if I’m going to be a star, I should look like it. Da Fingaz for sticking with me and providing the soundtrack for my life for over a decade now. my personal friend Top Floor Toya for believing in me, even though at times I didn’t believe myself. Jynx Wrigley for calling me by my artist name, when I went for a job interview when I felt like giving up on music. Kristen Kristen for telling me the hard truth with care and wisdom. My brother Tazz Smith for holding me down and seeing the potential in my leadership skills, plus encouraging me to leave my impoverished ways far behind me. All my siblings for the patience in dealing with big bro. I can go on but I would need 10 pages, but this sums up the immediate.
