You never know where life will take you. Sheff G, one of the bigger names in New York City's hip-hop youth movement, never thought he'd be a rapper. Now, he has over 10 million streams on Spotify off his singles alone, thanks to the success of songs like "We Getting Money," "Flows" featuring his close friend and fellow Brooklyn rapper Sleepy Hallow, and the song that was his breakthrough hit, "No Suburban." It's his turn in the spotlight, and it's all a result of his focus on mixing contemporary sounds (Brooklyn drill and more traditional rap beats) along with being a clever technical rapper.
Sheff G's hip-hop connection all started in 2017, when he was just freestyling with his friends. One faithful day, they all decided to hit the studio and realized they stumbled upon something. That same year birthed "No Suburban," the Brooklyn drill song that got Sheff known locally to the point fans would stop him in the street.
He committed to rap and dropped his debut project, The Unluccy Luccy Kid, in 2019, which showcased his versatility to rap over all sorts of sounds. The effort also made room for Sleepy Hallow to shine alongside him. In addition to delivering hard-hitting bars, Sheff G also prides himself on working with producers to craft his beats. Plus, he also claims he pushed the Brooklyn drill sound into the forefront of rap. You never know what's next, but Sheff G is surely trending upward.
