Multi-platinum recording artist Kevin Gates has announced the release of a lyrical new track, “Grandmotha Grave,” available now via all digital retailers and streaming platforms HERE. “Grandmotha Grave” arrives with a standout companion visual that showcases Kevin in a number of desolate areas, delivering passionate lyrics over a rich beat; watch HERE.
Kevin Gates recently released the video for “Still Hold Up,” a dark reflection of the artist’s life experiences, which has now accumulated over 2.3 MILLION views on YouTube; watch HERE.
Gates’ recent string of new music follows last year’s critically acclaimed blockbuster LP, I’M HIM, available via Bread Winners Association at all music retailers and streaming services HERE. The album proved a sensation upon its September 2019 release, arriving at #1 on both Billboard’s “Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums” and “Digital Albums” charts while also debuting among the top 5 on the overall SoundScan/Billboard 200 – Gates’ fourth top 10 debut thus far.

In addition, Gates recently teamed with VICE to launch 1-800-KEVIN: The Kevin Gates Helpline, an inspirational new web series – co-hosted with lifetime best friend OG BoobieBlack – offering advice and positivity to fans for everything that life throws at them. Episode 3 arrived earlier this month, following Episode 2 – entitled “Mystery Smells and Shady Jobs” – which premiered shortly before and is streaming now HERE
I’M HIM marked Gates’ first official album release in more than three years, following 2016’s now-classic debut, ISLAH. Despite his legal challenges and incarceration circumstances over the past three years, the Baton Rouge-raised emcee hasn’t stopped delivering heavy-hitting music to his fans, including BY ANY MEANS 2, CHAINED TO THE CITY, LUCA BRASI 3 and latest ONLY THE GENERALS GON UNDERSTAND. The six-track project – which includes such acclaimed singles as “Big Gangsta” and “#Yukatán” – fast proved another smash for Gates.
ISLAH affirmed Kevin Gates as one of hip-hop’s greatest new stars, second only to Drake as the best-selling hip-hop artist of 2016. One of the rare major hip hop releases to contain no featured artists, the album made an incredible chart debut upon its January 2016 arrival, entering Billboard’s “Top Rap Albums” chart at #1 while also coming in at #2 on the SoundScan/Billboard 200 with sales in excess of 110,000 – Gates’ biggest sales week to date. ISLAH of course includes a pair of smashes in the 3x platinum certified “ReallyReally” and the 4x platinum, top 20 blockbuster, “2 Phones,” the latter of which ascended to #17 on Billboard’s overall “Hot 100” – Gates’ highest charting mainstream single to date. What’s more, Gates’ distinctive accompanying visuals saw him ranked by the New York Times as the #5 most-watched artist on YouTube in the US between January 2016 and April 2017. Indeed, “Really Really” has drawn more than 239 million views thus far, while “2 Phones” has earned a remarkable 289 million views and counting via YouTube alone.

AMNPLIFY – DB
My nickname is “The Amnplifier”. Why? Because around here my focus is on being a conduit for providing greater outcomes that people come here for. My day to day “work” is living in the moment, and I love helping others concentrate on finding their connection to themselves through their experiences.
Why start a music environment? The truth is I love music, I love writing, and I love life. I work with musicians every day, and I feel certain that I will be until they put me in the ground. I have been managing people in businesses of some sort for over thirty five years so along the way I have developed some “wisdom” from my regular and constant “observations”.
Amnplify your experience. That is what we want you to do here, and if you want to let me know why you do, or don’t, shoot me a message on Facebook.
Hope you enjoy yourself here and find something that hits you somewhere.
