Artist Spotlight: G-Eazy - “When It’s Dark Out” Tour 2016

G-Eazy in 2012Fast-forward a few years and G-Eazy has released two albums with RCA Records, headlined his own tours, performed at countless music festivals as well as on Late Night TV. G-Eazy’s work ethic certainly paved the way for his grassroots success. Whether it was partnering with Uber for cross-promotion for his shows, entering Spotify’s emerging artist contest, or hosting secret listening parties for his fans in cities across the country, G-Eazy has always carefully calculated his next move.Photographer Grady Brannan has played a large part in the shaping of G’s public image. Back in the day, Gerald could be spotted wearing flower-print button-downs or varsity letter jackets, but his style has certainly evolved in the past few years. Grady’s photos depict G in stark black and white puffing on a joint, pounding back whiskey, getting lined up at the barber shop, or performing in sold-out arenas. The look, the music, the personality – it’s infectious. Young men show up to his conerts with the same signature haircut and leather jackets; his female fans will stop at nothing for a chance to hang out after hours on his tour bus.

G-Eazy’s shows have become more massive with each run. He’s already on the road promoting his latest album “When It’s Dark Out” with co-headliner A$AP Ferg and openers Marc E. Bassy and Nef the Pharoah. The tour kicked off in Portland Oregon on January 6th and will continue across the U.S., Australia, and Europe. The tour is nearly sold out, but a few stops still have a few tickets remaining. Whether you’re a long-time G fan or have just recently hopped on the bandwagon, this monumental tour is certainly not one to miss for hip-hop fans.
