A: “I’ve been rapping since I was 4 years old. I took it serious about a year ago. I’m a hustler. Rapping wasn’t really on my mind but I got back into it because other people around me wanted to see me win and they know I have a story to tell. I remember when I was younger, I used to freestyle, rap, and listen to music such as Lil Wayne and Bow Wow. I always been around music my whole life. My family did it. “

I talk about stuff that I’m around everyday, things that I’ve been through, things that I’m dealing with, things that my people are dealing with, situations that we are trying to get out of, things we did. Everything is off the dome. I don’t write anything. All I have to do is hear the beat, if I’m feeling it, then we’re working with something.”

A: “GMS comes from the streets. I started the movement about 3 years ago. We have a lot of shirts made, that’s when I got back in the booth and said I wanted to create my own label.

That’s just the movement right now. That’s what I want to establish and make a way out the” trenches for me and my people.
