Squally.g is more than your average up-coming artist. Along with his important role as a father; he’s a songwriter, author, motivational speaker, true testament of what life is like for a young black man with dreams, living in America. From St. Rose, Louisiana, Squally.g has made his mark in New Orleans, Baton Rouge, Atlanta, and Houston. As expected from a bias point of what today’s male artists are like, Squally.g has had his share of trouble. While doing 2 years in prison, he made it his due diligence not only to the state of Louisiana, but the people that would be blessed from his existence He understood his purpose for living, and hit the ground running upon his release date. Squally.g knew it was time for the world to be blessed by his gifts.
As a father, his first mission was to be just that a father, big brother, uncle, friend and he began being booked, at different places to encourage and motivate other young fathers to do the same. He understood precociously, that although everybody seems to do music, nowadays, the places deemed as hoods are forgotten about, and the influencers, only influence, but rarely speak the real, and give back. To save time, from traveling and speaking he wrote his first book. An autobiography, titled, “Dedicated to: Those like Me’. That way he could spread his message, and be able to reach those behind bars, and young men in foster homes. “I want my fans, and the kids that look up to me, (especially mine), to know yea, I rap, I do music, but I’m just like them, just growing wiser, stronger. A lot of industry people take off and forget where they come from, they stunt more than anything, I really care about those that support a young dude like me, that came from where I came from, and made the 360 change, and still hasn’t changed, not gone change, or forgot about them”, he declares boldly.
Squally.g created a clothing brand, “Rt360”, to promote his affiliations with Record Label, Risk Takers 360. You can catch one of these items at his shows, where he often passes out shirts to fans in the audience, sell them at bookings, or you check out his instagram to see designs, and also purchase. A firm believer in giving back, he also donates some of his designs to boys home, and men shelters, and homeless alike.
