Greg G

Spend enough time driving through Texas, and you will inevitably cross paths with several entities. Blue skies, wide-open spaces, probably some cows, and a chain of restaurants known simply as “Dairy Queen”, all staples of the southern United States, serve their purpose of reminding you where you are, and what you can expect down the road. In the last few years, one figure has taken it upon himself to enter those elite ranks as a Texas staple, blazing a trail in music as exciting as it is powerful. This path belongs to Greg G.

Since 2002, Greg G (aka The Golden Child) has been on a straight shot to the top of Texas’ music scene, unparalleled even by industry standards. While most artists spend years perfecting their craft, Greg was signed to “Holla At Ya Boy” Records the same year he even began producing beats on a Radio Shack keyboard. By 2003, Greg had moved to Dallas, founded Golden Productions (the company he still produces with to this day), and began working with Strong Arm Entertainment, a group affiliated with Rockafella Records. However, it was in 2004, upon relocating to San Antonio, Texas, that Greg began to find his niche. Within three years, Greg opened his own studio, co-founded Dynamak Entertainment, released D.E. Mixtapes 1-5, and was crowned San Antonio’s “Top Hip Hop Artist” (at the age of 22) after a performance thrown by Cricket Mobile.

Between local news coverage and attending music classes at UTSA, Greg has spent the last three years playing shows with Texas legends like Bun B, Slim Thug, and Question. He has produced and written for Grammy-Award winning artists Bizzy Bone (of Bone Thugs & Harmony), and Toni Braxton, and with the help of projects like King Mike’s “Rambis” mixtape (garnering 15,000 downloads in the first two days upon release), Greg had made a name for himself as not just a performer, or producer, but both equally. Now, with the upcoming release of his mixtape “The Golden Child”, and the startup of his website www.GoldenChild210.com, the world may very well get a taste of what Texas has been listening to for some time…another Golden Production.
