- Kevin Gates
Kevin Gates transformed into one of the most impactful and inimitable rappers in the game by simply being Kevin Gates. Nearly 15 years into an unbelievable career, he doesn’t chase trends. He doesn’t censor himself. He doesn’t hold back. Instead, he speaks his mind and fulfills every promise.It’s why the Baton Rouge, LA native has racked up 15 billion streams, 6 billion views, and dozens of multiplatinum, platinum, and gold certifications. It’s why he’s logged four Top 5 entries on the Billboard Top 200 in addition to seven Top 5 entries on both the Top Rap Albums Chart and the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums Charts. It’s why he’ssold out successive headline tours, delivered show-stopping sets at Rolling Loudand JMBLYA, and ignited arenas with Cardi B. It’s why he’s received various high-profile award nominations. It’s why he’s reached rarified air, emerging as second best-selling hip-hop artist of 2016 only behind Drake. It’s why he’s also spawned countless think pieces. Among those, Pitchforkdescribed 2019’s gold-certified I’m Himas “another showcase for the Baton Rouge rapper’s fully formed and gloriously weird personality”and praised, “The hooks are magnificent, his most boisterous and fine-tuned since Islah.” As always, he doesn’t compromise on 2021’s Only the Generals PartII[Breadwinners Association/Atlantic Records] and more music on the horizon.The new project is a sequel to 2019’s Only the Generals Gon Understand, which upon release, debuted Top 10 on Billboard’sR&B/Hip Hop Albums & Top Rap Albums charts.
