I have to be honest, Kevin Gates hasn’t been on my music radar. I am just not into him all that much. I was recently criticized by some of his fans on Facebook for not knowing his lyrics (petty I know). I still haven’t listened to much of his music.
After watching the below interview with Hot 97’s Peter Rosenburg, I am a little more interested in him as an artist. Here’s some interesting facts i’ve learned about Kevin.
- He is from Louisiana (I don’t know why I thought he was from Texas)
- He’s been in and out of jail his entire life
- He is managed by Young Money
- He has a street daddy that he has tatted on him. (A daddy that raised you in the streets)
- He is an emotional rapper
- He has his cousin’s name tatted in his ear
- He has two kids but a group of kids look up to him as a dad
- He has a picture of Elvis tattooed on his chest (Because he saw Elvis faced stamped in a cocaine brick)
