A survivor of 9/11, his “survivor talk” blends cinematic, lo-fi production with gritty storytelling delivered in a resonant baritone.His breakthrough project, The Survivors (2019), executive-produced by Flee Lord, paired haunting atmospherics with razor-sharp bars, gaining attention from key hip-hop platforms and tastemakers. Follow-up releases — including Scriptures in the Sky (with The Musalini) and Regressions (produced by Mephux) — further solidified his reputation for unfiltered lyricism and brooding sonic landscapes.G4 Jag is affiliated with Flee Lord’s LORD MOBB and leads his own creative collective, Fly Family. His collaborations include Flee Lord, Roc Marciano, Planet Asia, 38 Spesh, Vic Spencer, Big Twins, T.F., ETO, 9th Wonder, Snowgoons, Musalini, and Dough Networkz.

With growing momentum from the Live From The Gutta performance at the Rochester International Jazz Fest after-party and an upcoming Overtime Hustlin Magazine cover feature, this project marks a new chapter for G4 Jag.Norfolk, VA’s own DeAngelo Xavier blends thought-provoking bars with a Boom Bap backbone. Since releasing his debut WhiteWalls in 2016, he has been building a catalog rich with vivid street imagery and sharp social commentary. Channeling influences like Nas, DeAngelo has crafted a distinct voice rooted in authenticity and lyricism.His grind has taken him onto stages with Benny The Butcher, Conway, and Smif-N-Wessun, earning his stripes from the DMV to the global underground scene.Send music submissions to: [email protected] – NO TRAP – NO MUMBLE RAPFacebook: @RePPiN4UInstagram: @infamousgrantbodyp @fionapatrick79 @shadfather1Twitter: @MZATheInfamous
