In the mid 1990s, MSG began rapping as Lord Tec in Houston in the
Native-Tongue-esque rap group Bass Tribe, and later in the group
Wasted Youth with members Nabisko, Chico, V Zilla, and DJ Chicken
George. Bass Tribe and Wasted Youth performed shows throughout
Houston, and gained radio airplay in the mid 90s. From 1994 to 2003,
Mexican Stepgrandfather joined the Houston political hip hop group,
Revolt of the Sun, DJ-ing and emceeing as Marco C. alongside Houston
rappers Apeman and Aspekt.
The moniker Mexican Stepgrandfather was born in 2007 as a social
commentary on the broken lineage between Texas Mexicans, Mexicans, and
Chicana/os. MSG has organized and promoted such shows as Till the Border Crumbles (SA),Resist the System (SA), War of Movement Texas Tour (SA, ATX, HOU), and
Battle the Corporations (HOU). In the summer of 2008, he performed
hip hop shows internationally in Spain and Mexico and continues to
play throughout Texas, with a strong focus in San Antonio, Houston,
and Austin-area venues.
In his music, Mexican Stepgrandfather samples records, raps, plays
guitar, bass, keyboard, drum machine and drums to create intersections
of cultural expression and political solidarity.

"MSG is a politically active wordsmith whose smart, unique rhymes, some bilingual, deal with social causes, border policies, identity politics and the like. And, MSG and his collaborators set those words to music that's driven by accordion, guitar and real-deal South Texas grooves."
