Meet DUBG3

At the age of 10, DubG3 started his rap journey in his hometown of Forth Worth, Texas. 

Influenced by his father’s musical pursuits, he asked for the opportunity to make a rap song. After recording one verse, his father sent it to Tony Draper, founder of Suave Records in Houston, TX, marking the beginning of DubG3’s journey into the rap world.

‘Age Appropriate’

Mike Jones, a Houston rap icon and mentor to DubG3, shares why he cosigned the young prodigy. He cites DubG3’s family lineage in the music industry, his association with Tony Draper, his undeniable talent, and the “life” surrounding him as reasons for his support. 

The two even collaborated on a track called “King,” showcasing DubG3’s impeccable flow and skills.

DubG3’s Age Appropriate Movement which he described as the idea of where kids have music to listen to for their age. He recognizes the lack of “age-appropriate” music for his generation and aims to provide kids with music they can relate to. He stated, 

“We have to listen to grown men and women rap, and I feel like I can make a change by doing the Age Appropiate Movement, where we can all have something to listen to,” championing the idea that children can have their own music that reflects their experiences.

Sports x Rap

In contrast to some younger artists who rap about violence, DubG3 focuses on creating relatable content for his peers. His goal is to ensure that kids his age have music that speaks to their experiences and resonates with them.

As the Fort Worth native excels in rap, he also dabbles in sports. When asked if he had to choose between rap and football, DubG3 confidently states:

“I feel like I don’t have to give up one to do the other, because I feel like right now I’m at a stage where as long as I focus on what I’m doing, I could do anything that I put my mind to.”

With more projects in the works, DubG3 is set to make an impact in 2024. He plans to release a new single in the coming months and spend more time in the studio. His dedication and passion for his rap career is inevitable, as he states:

 “I really want to take this as far as I can.”
