GT's Interview with On The Rise Magazine
Check out GT's interview with Atlanta's OnTheRise Magazine! Shout out to Robyn!
OTR – For those that dont know GT, tell us a little about youself?
GT - Is a lyrical and talent artist that was born and raised in Columbia SC ! I am the CEO of Money Rich Music and pride myself on making timeless music.
OTR – What is your style of music and how are you different from the other artist in the game?
GT – Well I don’t really have a preference or style of music! I am a hip hop artist but if given a pop beat, rock beat, etc etc I know I can make it happen ! Alot of the music is not timeless is fads ! I look up to artist that make music that u can listen to years from when it comes out! I’m perfecting my craft, my direction, and growth in music! And the scariest part is I’m just getting started!
OTR - What’s playing in your cd player right now?
GT – Right now myself ! But when there is other music in there its definitely Jay Z ,Rozay,Wale, Meek Mill or Lauren Hill.
OTR – So lets talk about your dreads, how long have you been growing them and what do they symbolize?
GT – I’ve been growing my hair for almost 5 years now ! When I started growing my dreads, it basically was a way to avoid having to go to a barber that wasn’t mine in a different city. Now its just me!
OTR – What type of music did you listen to when you were growing up?
GT – Plenty of Jay Z , Jada Kiss , Lox, Dipset , Rakim , OutKast , Biggie and Pac
OTR – Did you always want to be a rapper? If so why?
GT – Believe it or not, I always wanted to play ball for a living, never was tall enough to make to league, but I felt I could def get payed to play basketball
somewhere
OTR – Tell us how you came up for the concept for your single “Tellem”
GT – “Tellem” was really a track about myself ! Daytona ( business partner ) came across the beat! We sat In the studio , he was harmonizing a melody to it ! We put my life in it and it worked out! We shot the video for it and that was a wrap
OTR – Lets talk about your personal life because it wouldnt be right if I didnt lol , are you single, taken, whats your relationship status?
GT – Haha , I am currently single! Not taken ! So there is no real lady in my life !
Q. Whats the worst thing a women can do to turn you off?
Wow , I would say probably not taking what I’m doin seriously! I do this because its me , I’m very good at it, and its the only thing on my mind when I wake up! So if a female thinks that its not a job or that I need a back up plan , then u don’t believe in my talents , therefore me and you have nothing to talk about !
Q So whats next for you?
The world hopefully!! Naw, but just trying to stay as visible as possible , continue to put out solid music, build my brand, and become someone the industry has to pay attention too ! And with my management (Tasha) and the other member of the team that have me at best interest I feel that it is reachable in the next few months and maintainable for the rest of my life !
