Grip was born in Staten Island New York in the late 80's and soon after his family all moved to the sunshine state. There is where he found his true passion for music. At the age of four he was sitting at the piano figuring out his own songs. He was never able to read music, but could always figure out any song almost instantly. When asked who his biggest influence was Grip answered Jay Z. " Honestly im a big Hip Hop Head, which even though I know damn well the music I make is not hip hop but shit i do it for the girls, and who is buyin albums these days" - Grip - Grip currently attends the University Of South Florida and is trying to get a degree just to fall back on. He actually did not start recording his own music until the summer of 08' when he was hearing all these other people trying to make it and thought to himself, shit I think I can do this so while at the studio with friends one night he decided to hop in the booth. since then everyday grip has been progressing, and says, "Shit theres people out there who been doin this shit there whole life and in the past few months ive done more then them" - Grip - Grip also spoken on how no matter what you do you gonna have people talkin shit and hatin. So he says, " keep hatin because im still gonna do my thing" Be on the look out for "Get A Grip" the album coming sometime in 2009, and there is no information on whether or not there will be a mixtape coming out in between the time of the album. " Keep your eyes open Because 2009 my Year" - GRIP -
