Well GP actually stands for Going Platinum and I got it from my buddy back when I first started rapping.

I do play live wherever and whenever I'm asked to. I actually just had my first live performance on November 13th at my High School. It was a great time and I loved making the people there sing along with my music.

I think that the internet has changed the industry in so many ways. With the internet, there's so much more oppritunity to hear anyone musically. I live in Erie, PA and I know of people from California that have heard my stuff. Its nuts the way the internet has changed the industry.

In a heartbeat I would sign. I would go with a minor label too. Wherever they show me respect, then I'm all for it.

I have a music myspace where you can find more info:

I have a youtube account where I most likely have new freestyles up every week:

I have a public AIM:

And of course I have this Soundclick page.

Wow, I have tons of influences. My mom is a major influence because she's raised me the best that she can. Anybody working in music, from The Game, Young Jeezy, Kanye West, Chamillionare, to any local musician trying to make a name for themselves. Also, Mitchell Davis of LiveLavaLive inspires me because he puts me in a good mood when I watch his videos.

Of course it would have to be Erie because it's where I'm growing up. But I also like to go to Pittsburgh, Philadelphia, Chicago, and Atlanta.

I use a simple computer mic and Magix Audio Studio 10 at my house. I also go to other friend's house's and use their equipment.

Don't be affraid to talk to me. I'm a very chill guy. Let me know what you think of my music. Also, R.I.P to my big homie. I miss you terribly man. I know you watching over me.
