I'm from Detroit and in my late 40's and I love Detroit rap and I can tell you GT is a truly certified street and rap legend out here.

[@47Quay]

The reason G.T. has had so much success is because his music is authentic. He built a loyal fanbase through focusing on his craft, and not being pressured into sounding like other artists. His success continues to inspire me. Hopefully one day my music can touch the masses such as G.T. But as for now I’m just happy being a fan
