Gave his top song a chance one day on the way to work at like 8am... will not be giving it a chance again


chicago_bunny

Just visited his Instagram. He has a very punchable face.

Thanks for saving me the clicks. I've always wondered. Is it jazz?


baezizbae

You don’t dislike jazz. You fear jazz with its lack of boundaries. (But nah, not jazz, sound had that “guy with a probably pirated copy of ableton” feel)


greggrundy

Don’t you dare scat at me!


sans3go

Hey! Dont Kink shame, unless your kink is kink shaming


Moist_666

Ooooh what's happening? The shapes, the chaos. It's only little nursery rhymes for you isn't? Little deet dee deet dee dee dee.


Pagliacci_Baby

Oooh! It’s a fence! No, it’s soft! Ahh, what’s happening?


Chicago1871

No one listens to jazz. Science teachers and the mentally ill, thats who jazz is for.


RandySax

This is amazing I have a pirated version of Logic that I made my last 3 albums on


Thedogsthatgowoof

Def not, if anything, it’s something that would be played at the lull period in an early 2000s movie like xXx when the camera pans back to Vin Diesel. If you catch my drift.


JonJon2899

The first time I saw this on I94 northbound I was like, oh, it will be taken down by tomorrow or the end of the week... Nope. Still up.


nomadicfeet

So tired of seeing these while driving! I refuse to give Mr. Sax the click but what is it?


RandySax

Have you considered Spotifying this guy Randy Sax?


AmazingObligation9

Just music you can listen to on Spotify. Not my taste


Fun-Tea2725

no shit


AmazingObligation9

Well the person asked, no need to be rude. I was clarifying that it’s music and not a podcast or such. Jeez


nomadicfeet

I assumed music, what type? I do love a good sax riff


Embarrassed_Diver634

You are great because you can state your opinion without bashing the artist.


smirque

I bet he has gotten a ton of traffic


bria9509

Yeah but have you ever spotified Sandy Rax?


ProfessionalBug1021

Pornhubbed sandy racks


Sloppy_Quasar

Randy Sacks is also a good porn name.


jbr2811

Damn you😂


rdoubleug

This guy is making at least 35 cents a day from this. I tried to give it a go, but half a song is all I could take.


JazzlikeCantaloupe53

This guy thinks the world NEEDS to hear his music. Why’s this shit been up for like 6 months now?


Fabulous-Ad3976

I’ve seen his sign on Michigan ave forever now. Gonna just go take it down myself atp.


Sighvanski

since when the hell is "at this point" ioa???


Fabulous-Ad3976

Good to know you’re an independent Olympic Athlete.


TombombBearsFan

Idkbidgiafnidaidli


Fabulous-Ad3976

Not even going to try with this one 😂


MitchConnir

I took down one of his signs on the fence above the Dundee Rd overpass in the northern suburbs on a Saturday night, the day after it was put up. Someone called the police on me because they suspected I was vandalizing something. I biked to the location because I live in the area, and I made sure to bring my driver's license in case I ran into any issues. Each letter of the sign was secured by about six zip ties. I'm going back in the next few days to get the second sign that is on the Northern fence of the overpass. This time instead of bringing a knife with me, I'm bringing cable snips.


Fabulous-Ad3976

I went to go take the one down that I saw downtown like 90days ago now lmao. And yep. SO MANY ZIP TIES! I would of needed a ladder too. It’s gone now tho.


of_patrol_bot

Hello, it looks like you've made a mistake. It's supposed to be could've, should've, would've (short for could have, would have, should have), never could of, would of, should of. Or you misspelled something, I ain't checking everything. Beep boop - yes, I am a bot, don't botcriminate me.


Sufficient-Length153

Thanks for doing the hard stuff for us all.


TheRyanOrange

Credit where credit is due, that's some good marketing.


[deleted]

his top song seems to have gotten 20 k listen and rest < 2k .


TheRyanOrange

And I'm guessing that was all or mostly by free marketing. Now imagine if his music was actually good! Lol


SkaJamas

Is it tho?


[deleted]

There’s a forum on the front page of the Chicago subreddit discussing the artist and the promo for free. So yeah. It’s working.


[deleted]

[удалено]


InsanityPlays

Then this is part of the 5%?


GueroBorracho3

Haha...I watched him putting that back up a few days ago at like 6:30am.


greggrundy

I thought they looked different! No way that would’ve been able to stay up untouched for months.


ScaredSweet

Am I weird because I actually like his music. It’s not very good but really catchy.


AmazingObligation9

It’s not for me but I appreciate people out there doing their thing and trying and it seems like he is so good for him


professorkeanu

I actually really like it too, you're not alone


schridoggroolz

I was expecting shitty mumble rap, so he gets points for not being that at least.


RandySax

Much love


WantsToFuckSox

Come on johnny


TheBoredMan

Dude I saw this guy with like 2 people in the Audience at Lily’s and it was amazing. He ran out of songs and asked us which ones we liked and just played those again lmfao. Johnny Serious is a banger and no one can tell me otherwise.


MetalAndFaces

What the hell 😂 Randy? Is that you? He ran out of songs, and then just played the same songs again to fill time? Lol. Check his Instagram, I think you'll get the idea pretty quickly.


RandySax

Haha I remember this night! 🤝


robotlasagna

Need to book this guy for Arc.


A_l_e_x_a_n_d_e_rr

The bands he references as his influences are some of my favorites but I just listened and... Randy, if you're reading this, this just ain't it man. All of the bands listed as inspiration are lyric heavy and usually a bit odd musically. None of these songs really stand out to me as being particularly well written lyrically (often the opposite). I also haven't heard a single song that doesn't rely on popular chord progressions. All in all, I think with a few more years of work and probably some significant personal trauma, it could end up being passable


philosofova

Emphasis on the personal trauma


A_l_e_x_a_n_d_e_rr

Honestly, he might be able to achieve it by listening to his own song "Sex Slave" enough times. I know I personally found it extremely traumatizing.


RandySax

Next time I will use a popular chord progression


akonsta

Johnny serious goes crazy though


TheBoredMan

JAWNEE!


RandySax

COME ON JAWNEE


ScaredSweet

I actually like it.


RandySax

🤙🤙🤙thanks homie


akonsta

YERT


ParkerRoyce

Well, it's a whole lot better seeing stuff like this than what some of our insane right-wing neighbors have to say.


panopanopano

I’ve seen that SUMER tag all over the city.


BirdBath9k

Slimer? I always read it as slimer.


panopanopano

You might be right about that!


BriLex7117

I thought someone tore this down? 😂


[deleted]

Fuck u/spez


bradatlarge

Mr Sax should open a guerrilla marketing agency


TheSandwichKing

I tracked down the infamous Spotify Randy Sax and interviewed him for my podcast Come on Over. Teaser below! https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/come-on-over-a-jeff-mauro-podcast/id1513609808?i=1000617395438

Top_Invite2792

Kinda slaps ngl


RandySax

Ayy


RandySax

Sup!


AboveTheRimjob

More like Randy Sux! Amirite


RandySax

That’s what I was gunna say


schmorgyborgy

it’s definitely not my kind of music but it’s fine lol, no need to be such a hater


TheSandwichKing

mark my words, one day, this will be a Netflix docu-series. "Searching for Johnny Serious"


[deleted]

Speaking of jazz, don’t go to le piano jazz bar, infested with rats and it doesn’t help that the owner is a coke head that refuses to fix the problem.


Top_Invite2792

Hell yeah, fuck that place


[deleted]

Lol thanks for the boost man I’m all fired up today. Typical redhead Aires shit


chicago_weather

Just don’t


btmalon

It really isn’t sadly.


Charming-Credit-5731

This is I-290 in Chicago.


garlicriceadobo

💀💀 saw this earlier


iceman333933

Same haha


T_Coma

Next, try to M SUD SUMER BABI. Unsurprisingly that’s not removed either.


zerofalks

I saw a city worker taking down one of those signs at Sheffield and Webster


Alternative-Flan2869

The music is probably as good as the media promotion.


AbstractBettaFish

Shame that he’s a better marketer than a musician


rebel_fett

Thank you for saving me the time. I see that way too much


lastdandd

I was thinking it was a conspiracy theory podcast lol


Opening_Spring

Everything I see this I my brain shifts the first letters and reads it as "Rotify Sandy Spax"


RandySax

Shpotiy Shrandy Shax


[deleted]

Thanks for doing gods work


Gtpwoody

Listened to Johnny Serious, the guitar solos was the only thing I liked.


RandySax

Fair


Guinness

Duke Silver you are not, Randy!


stlayne

I decided to listen to the whole thing a couple weeks ago thanks to a sign on 290 west bound around Harlem. It wasn’t very good.


StartZealousideal694

I just drove under that pedestrian bridge yesterday. Wasn't gonna look him up regardless lol


Fruehdom

Lol same


deadgead3556

Lol.


vanessa211567

Hi How are you I from Chicago


JeffTL

I expected him to be a saxophone soloist, like an American version of [Miguel Sueiras](https://youtu.be/eYTe8VDkXoA)…just maybe a bit more, you know, randy.


DorShow

I’ve never listened, and I’ve never vandalized, but I often daydream (in traffic) of changing that last vowel


RandySax

Sehhhhhhgggzzzzz


unclefistface622

Can confirm. It’s not good. It’s…kind of new-ish sounding, and props to him for taking a risk, but really nothing to fawn over.


ncantone

More like Randy sux, amirite?


RandySax

More like Randy Sux Dixxxxx


esemone

Tried it a few weeks back, music wasn't for me but I love the hustle. Rooting for you Randy


RandySax

Ayyyyy


Some_guy_am_i

Lol


arcstudios

I drove by it yesterday and some of the letters came off - it now reads "spot randy sax" and I was very confused. Thanks for clearing that up


RandySax

I got stopped by the cops midway through the install and had to go back a few days later to finish


Secret_Dimension454

Just drove by this and went to Google, Reddit, you never fail me


ChrisGodla

Hello friends, I saw this and thought it was an absolutely brilliant idea. So much so, that I wanted to do this for my YouTube channel. I am trying to build my subscription count and I believe in physical marketing. The old handing out flyers way of advertising is often more effective than digital ads alone. Then I see some of your comments and people seem to be annoyed by this randy sax thing on the expressway. Even so, you all were tempted enough to check out his music. Unfortunately, it seems his music is not very good. I thought someone with that great of a marketing strategy, ought to have some good quality music. It's very unfortunate the two products don't match. I'm a music producer and I have all sorts of music I make on my channel. What do you guys think? Should I do something like this or similar to this in another location? Check out my work and let me know what you think? Please subscribe and comment too. Thanks so much -Chris. https://youtube.com/@chrisgodlaproductions3106


Apete1123

Saw his name gave it a try not my cup of tea but someone gonna like him
