IAMGAWD

Passion. Hunger. Aggression. Skill. Just a few words that fit the description of independent Chicago emcee IAMGAWD (GAWD an acronym for Getting Ahead Without Devolving). With a unique baritone, agile flow and ear for complimentary production IAMGAWD is definitely an artist to check for. Hailing from Chicago's, now defunct, LeClaire Courts housing projects IAMGAWD realized his love for music early on. His mother would always sing around the house and she even taught him the alphabet using notable musicians of the time. His musical influences include Hip Hop legends such as The Notorious B.I.G., Tupac Shakur, Nas, Jay Z, DMX, Big Pun, The LOX and Twista to name a few. Raised by the elite wordsmiths of the 90s/early 00s IAMGAWD’s roots are planted firmly in lyricism and infused with the awareness of modern day rap. Always eager to evolve and better his craft IAMGAWD is poised to make an impact. His mission is simple: go down in history as one the greatest emcees to ever put pen to pad and lay hands on a microphone. #IAMGAWD🎤👑 #NXMEDIXCRE #NXBAHZXFF #CHICAGONEVER4GOTHOW2RAP
