Just like with most artists, everything Grip does he believes to be perfection—and it is. Grip as an artist takes being yourself to a whole new level. When in the studio, not only is it just Grip himself, but he doesn’t give a f*ck about anyone or anything else. He’s a purely untainted artist, one who doesn’t care what’s popular or the norm. When making new music, it’s him + the beat + the hook and then the lyrics are born.
Grip Plyaz was born and raised in 4th Ward Atlanta, which is home to a few other big names in the industry (Young Jeezy, Slick Pulla, etc), but Grip is definitely a rarity out the hood. Being born and raised in the south’s melting pot, Grip appreciates music from everywhere;...

“I f-cks with this even though dude plays that, bullsh-t service-some-blogs-first game: Grip Plyaz - "F-ck Dat Hipster Sh-t (No Shots)"”

“There’s a supposed “hipster scene” that’s been brewing in Atlanta’s underbelly for quite some time but 4th Ward vet and Underground A-Town celeb Grip Plyaz is seperating himself from it before it blows up. Take a listen and watch out for him in ‘09.”

“Why hasn’t this song come out any sooner? This pretty much sums up how the kanye wanna bee’s damaged the streetwear culutre. Not too mention the beat goes super tough. Download this and check out more goodies from Grip Plyaz on his Myspace.”
