Marcus Gaddy

Marcus Gaddy’s ability to merge serious introspective lyricism with irrelevant comic content has made him a viral sensation in the hip-hop underground. Along with his alter-ego Handrew , he has created a distinctive style - half serious artist, half wise-cracking satirist. Now, with the release of his most compelling material to date, Marcus near a breakthrough.

Marcus was born and raised in Albany, NY, where he spent his childhood immersed in classic east coast hip-hop. He started rapping at age twelve, immediately displaying the quick wit and impeccable sense of rhythm that would come to define his career. Eventually, he started creating online content, and within a few short years, he had found a dedicated legion of fans.

With his breakout single ‘Gaddy,’ Marcus established himself as a different kind of artist - one capable of challenging the status quo while not taking himself too seriously. He followed that up with a series of comic videos including ‘Walking Down The Hall,’ each one revealing new sides of his artistry. After releasing several videos staring Handrew, Marcus had established himself as a bona fide viral star.

With his latest releases, Marcus is intent on exploring new sounds and emotions. Whether he is performing an upbeat banger or a moody, melodic ballad, he brings rare conviction and authenticity to every song. With a steady stream of new content expected for 2022 and beyond, expect Marcus to be a fixture of the hip-hop world for years to come.
