In 2017 GR4M wrote and released a 5 track self-titled EP that focused on his growth and self-discovery as a human being and artist. The songs ranged from sentimental ballads about understanding his own perspective on life, to optimistic and rhythmic narratives about his future.

In 2018 GR4M began self-producing and recording his music as a way to keep his artistic vision personal and true to himself. His current sound and songwriting focuses on blending his melodic and rhythmic abilities as a vocalist and rapper. It conveys stories about his personal struggles as well as uplifting messages in hopes that his audience can relate and grow alongside him.
