Independent artist G Premacy from Buffalo, New York says his persistence, patience, and genuine love for music has gotten him to where he is today in the music industry. G Premacy is not new to the game in fact he has been hustling for more than a decade to achieve some of his biggest accomplishments yet. From touring in the U.S. to earning the title for “Colorado’s Solo Artist of the Year,” his motto “live your life how you see fit” is something that he turned into his lifestyle.
G Premacy began making music in 2004 with a makeshift microphone he made with a durag and a USB Skype mic. During this time, he learned how to fully structure a song, leading him to build his first home studio. As he learned more about music his drive grew along with his experience and talent level. Initially he had no real goals when it came to writing and producing music, but it was undeniable that he had found his calling.
Fast forward to 2010, he received his first confirmation that he truly had a talent for music after opening a show for Maino in Brooklyn, New York.
“Well, here we are in the heart of hip hop… I guess we’re about to see where my skills really lie.” He recalled, “My first song dropped, I started bobbing, dropped a verse, the hook, and thought… ‘They’re not booing. Ok, ok… wait, they’re actually vibing hard!”
Following that performance, he began opening shows for Futuristic, Lil Bibby, and Tory Lanez. He also booked a tour with with Fresh Kils and Chuckie Campbell from Toronto to SXSW in Austin, TX. His career was already on the rise when he decided to make a big jump to focus more on his music journey!
“After a great run in 2014 and early 2015, I went to one of my best friend’s wedding in Florida.” He explained, “While out on my balcony in the Florida sun, I found a flyer in my travel bag from the artist’s lounge at ‘SXSW 2015’, 2 months earlier. There was a guy having the time of his life, confetti falling from the sky, money in his hand, and a huge smile on his face. Even if I don’t want all the same exact things, I wanted the happiness of living out what I was meant to do.”
It was then where he changed his flight which would have taken him back home to Buffalo, New York to Denver, Colorado. He felt that he had no room to grow in Buffalo which led him to move to Denver with his two travel bags and 500 dollars cash.
The hip hop artist known for bringing energy, confidence, and charisma to the stage was grinding his way to the top in the new city. In fact, 7 months after G Premacy moved to Denver he was named “Colorado’s Solo Artist of the Year!”
Following that huge accomplishment, G Premacy’s unique sound and incredible work ethic landed him another nationwide tour with Chuckie Campbell. If there is one thing to learn from G Premacy’s amazing career is that you can achieve anything if you set your mind to it!
Currently the independent artist is working on his next album titled, The Transition which is coming out in October.
