At the tender age of 7, Pat G witnessed his mother’s murder and has used this traumatizing experience to fuel his hunger towards music. After his mothers passing Pat G moved around with different family members both in North Carolina and then back to Connecticut. Initially, Pat was strictly into making beats until he linked with CT emcee Renzo and they formed a group called Trouble City. “Peer pressure is a bitch” and Pat G gave in as he would be forced into freestyle sessions at the local youth center where all the local talent would meet up. Pat G’s freestyle and battling talents quickly became evident to anyone that listened to him; his witty punch lines and comedic style of rap quickly got him recognized as a serious force.

After dropping out of college due to financial troubles Pat G moved to Boston in 2003. Since the move Pat G has become a well known force on the city’s rap battle scene. Pat G has amassed a long list of victims when it comes to battling, he also has similar success with his production skills.
