The Rising of a NEW
MUSICAL
GENERATION
GMC Official Music is a one man operation: which includes
songwriting, recording, mixing, mastering, graphics, music
videos, promotion and marketing. As GMC informs, “There is
presently no team as yet. But, I'm going through the recruitment
stage as the content creation task becomes more demanding. I
currently operate from a home studio setup and when I’m not
working on my personal projects I freelance production for other
upcoming and established local artists.”
Ambitious is an understatement when describing this very
talented Barbadian native hiphop artist. GMC has a unique
addiction to the world of Hip Hop & Rap. Growing up he was not
tutored in music but his drive and passion for it has led to an
obsession to ‘shine’ through the ‘cloudy’ local music industry
dominated by soca & dancehall. He promises to put Bridgetown
on the map in the world of Hip Hop & Rap.
As an artist & producer of his own works, GMC naturally spills
originality & creativity on everything he touches. He’s sure to
take Barbados, the Caribbean & the world by storm.
“Re-construction Mixtape 2012”
GMC released his first official solo mixtape “Re-construction”
under his co-founded indie label UBMG [Urban Bass Music
Group].
GMC explains: “Re-construction was me lyrically telling them
look, you all had the local Hip Hop movement stagnant for years.
It’s time an experienced foreman stepped in and reconstruct the
game from the ground up. When I showed the fans my versatility
they wanted to hear me rip those international beats these other
rappers be tripping on. So, I balanced it with some of my own
productions and delivered”.
GMC has produced singles such as “Everything Bless”, “Rollin”,
“This Is How We Do It”, “Got It Right Here”, “Lying To Myself”
and “SnapBack” which is the track that got him signed at Gold
Coast Records on its debut, when performed with label cofounder Polydan & Raw-G at the Barbados Hip Hop Festival
2012.
“Futuristic Dreams Mixtape 2013”
GMC explains: “After the release of ‘Re-construction’ it was all
uphill for me. I started to get more focused knowing how tough it
was for the average Bajan artist from the hood, avenue, and block
to be recognized in a soca/dancehall dominated market. So my
aim on the futuristic mixtape was to bring a more conscious vibe
to the game”.
With his signature witty, metaphorical style and a huge step up in
production, GMC once again delivered a mixtape fans labelled
“Classic”. With hits like “Hate Love Jealousy”, “On My Own”,
and “Futuristic Dreams” he’s definitely on his way to the top!
The Road to the “Bridgetown Knight II” [Street Album] 2014
A new year, a lot has changed since the release of “Futuristic
Dreams Mixtape 2013” and things couldn’t be looking any
brighter for the rising Barbadian Hip Hop artist.
GMC dropped the local indie label [UBMG] (which he cofounded) and started the new local Hip Hop movement
#FuturitikMusikGroup [FMG].
“Bridgetown Knight II” is the sequel to GMC’s under-promoted
“Bridgetown Knight I” which he released in 2010.
