Hip Hop in the Ville #6 10Gzy

10Gzy
Written by Crystal Walker
The Eastside of Nashville is in full focus with the one and only 10Gzy. Not wanting to become a product of his environment, he used his inspiration and interest towards the rap game to pull him in from the streets 11 years ago. Rapping was his excuse to stay out of the streets and put his attention somewhere more productive. In 2003 his career became more professional. 10Gzy now has 4 mix-tapes out entitled, "Grown Ass Man Vol.1, Bipolar Disorder Vol.2, Lil Man Syndrome Vol.1, and Most Anticipated Vol.2. He has a few collaborations with a few C-List and major artists including, Such as Bo Dill, Wacka Flacka, Kills Nash, and TankHeatTotta. Unlike other artist, 10Gzy has made a video for each of his songs on every Mix-tape he has created. So far he has 15 videos out. This shows plenty of hustle and drive within his path. He was nominated for an award last year at the 2nd HHV Awards, and nominated for two awards this year including, Best Video, and Hardest Grinder of the Year. 10Gzy is not only a rapper, he is also an actor. He was in the movie King of the Ville. In 2012 you can catch him in King of the Ville Part 2, and in Queen Over Her Prince. Knowing the love has spread beyond his family and friends, and had reached his fellow peers outside the community, gives him more gratitude than any one could imagine.
