After taking a step away from music for two years, TtheGAWD knew exactly what he wanted to accomplish with the I Am GAWD album. Alongside Chicago producer Max Julian, TtheGAWD convincingly displays the tenacity of his penmanship, his ear for solid production as well as the ability to tell engaging stories through songs. I Am GAWD is an ode to the mid to late ‘90s, grimey New York era, combined with his personal experiences growing up in Chicago’s inner city.

“I Am GAWD is for the struggling artists with all the talent in the world who just want to be heard. For the emcees and producers who are constantly told to switch their sound because this style of music is no longer profitable. For the underdog and avid Hip-Hop head in general.”
— TtheGAWD

TtheGAWD set out to rediscover who he is as an emcee and artist with I Am GAWD. No autotune. No formulaic song structure. No redundant content. Just a masterful display of a level of art that's not really being heard on a large scale from Chicago at the moment. The title says it all: I Am GAWD — which translates to “I Am Getting Ahead Without Devolving.” Meaning, he won't compromise who he is to get where he's going.

Video After The Jump

With his head bandaged and left arm in a sling, Troy Ave, walked out of a hospital under his own power Monday night, December 26, a day after being ambushed by a gunman in Brooklyn, New York.

The BSB Records boss suffered a gunshot wound to the back and was grazed in the head, when a man with a hoodie pulled down over his face approached his red Maserati while it was at an intersection and opened fire at around 5:00 in the afternoon on Christmas Day.

ABC 7 New York reports that after being wounded Troy put his car in reverse and while traveling at a high rate of speed, jumped a median, before being hit by another car.

He was taken to a local hospital for treatment. Doctors made the decision not to take the bullets out at this time, leaving the rapper with one still lodged in his back and a fragment in his head.

Troy will have surgery at a later date to have them removed.

“He is very sore,” his lawyer, John Stella told the New York Daily News. “The doctors told the family that he came dangerously close to having a spinal cord injury — but it looks like there’s no lasting damage from the wound track.”

Troy's girlfriend was in the car with him at the time, but escaped injury.

“DIVINE ORDER. My God is real. We were covered,” she wrote Monday on Facebook.

Police have no suspects at this time.
