4:39Now PlayingIn an exclusive with VladTV, Cali rapper GEazy breaks down his viral come up online, going to school with The Pack and working on his album through his home studio.
The 25-year-old explains his business approach to his rap career and why social media is the best A&R to build your craft and fanbase. With millions of views via YouTube, the rapper has built his own buzz online. The huge feedback from fans ultimately lead him to opportunities like this year's cypher at the BET Hip Hop Awards with Kevin Gates, Loaded Lux, G-Eazy and O.T. Genasis. G-Eazy explains that getting a music video on MTV or MTV Jams ultimately means nothing nowadays since the audience lives online.
The Oakland native also revealed that he went to school with The Pack and indie-pop production group The Cataracs. He says he didn't know Lil B that well in school, but was aware of his star power. The rapper says watching the come up of both groups gave him hope that he can make it in the rap world.
