When he made the decision to rap, nobody would help him. He’d bring rhymes to his peers for beats, and no one jumped at the chance to collaborate. So, he went even harder and he did everything himself. By the age of 14, he had taught himself how to create beats, produce, and even mix and master. He’d become a wholly self-sufficient artist before tenth grade. Now 21, he recalls, “All I cared about was music. I would stay up all night working on tracks and go to school tired. It didn’t matter. I wanted to be heard.”
Inspired by everyone from Chris Brown and Usher to Jay-Z and Pharrell, he studied various genres inside and out. That determination and dedication eventually yielded a viral sensation.
In 2008, he dropped his first online track "You Should Know" on MySpace. It became a viral hit, generating over three million views and buzzing amongst listeners worldwide. Joining up with the famed crew HBK Gang, the Bay Area began to embrace him as he performed countless gigs, developed a local presence, and honed a sound of his own.
"Musically, it's a mixture of everything," he explains. "It's like going to McDonalds and pouring every drink in one cup. I want to start my own genre—like a crossover of R&B and Bay Area party hip-hop."
That crossover revs up on "Gas Pedal." This smash hit switches lanes between a club-ready beat and a swaggering hook. Sage's smooth flow coasts alongside a slick verse from HBK's Iamsu.
He continues, "It's a dancing song. I like to keep the violence to a minimum. Dancing helps kids in a big way that no one wants to pay attention to. If they're dancing, it's all good. I grew up listening to Iamsu. To have him on there is a blessing."
The song attracted Republic Records who inked a deal with him in 2013. Then, as part of the EP of the same name, "Gas Pedal" sped toward the top online and at radio, reaching #5 on the Billboard Hip-Hop Chart and racking up over 12 million YouTube/VEVO views. At the same time, countless fans uploaded their own takes on the song to both YouTube and Vine, making the impact simply seismic. Cumulatively, there are over 110 million viral views fueled by this immense audience response without radio. It also serves as a gateway to his forthcoming full-length debut album for the label.
Another banger "Red Nose" wiggles from an unshakable chorus and a massive groove, becoming an anthem in its own right. It showcases just how clever he really is too. "I wanted to say something that means 'ass-shaking' without simply saying it," he grins. "That's where the comparison to a red nose pit bull came from."
Ultimately though, everything about Sage stands out. Producing and writing, he architects his own vision completely from the music to the rhymes. Now, he's speeding towards the top.
"I want people to feel like they can live with me through the music," he concludes. "It's about having a good time together. The album's going to have turn-up and party songs as well some more emotional moments. It's everything, and everyone is welcome along for the ride."
BABY
Sage The Gemini Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Stylin' while my side bitch lookin' at me crazy
You ain't got that money, get the fuck up out my way then
Stop with all that hot shit, bitch, what is you sayin'?
I'm still dangerous with no gang-gang
I'm just walkin' with my baby
Ayy, ayy, ayy
Whole minute on the 'Gram, you know I keep a full clip
Every time I hit I do some new shit
I go down, she speak in tongues, now I'm preachin' from the pulpit (yeah)
Ayy, I just took her to Jamaica
Tell her ex to get his cake up
I been drippin' with the flavor
Cartier's on my face
My bitch look good without the makeup
Spendin', spendin' all this paper
I'm just walkin' with my baby
Stylin' while my side bitch lookin' at me crazy
You ain't got that money, get the fuck up out my way then
Stop with all that hot shit, bitch, what is you sayin'?
I'm still dangerous with no gang-gang
I'm just walkin' with my baby (oh)
Bang-bang (oh)
New three-sixty you'll get hit with that three-eighty (oh, yeah)
Give that bitch the steel but she better not leave it stainless (oh, oh, oh)
I just bought the bank and my bitch a pair of anklets (yeah, ooh, yeah)
I'm still dangerous with no gang-gang
I'm just walkin' with my baby
Lovin' my bitch when she step
Jimmy Choos all on the jet
Elliot shine up her neck
She got the plain jane Patek
Her wedding finger frozen
You know my bitch come from the set
Know she know how to finesse
Know my bitch pussy the best
Water, my baby too wet
She do not see other men
Hope my baby understand
A man gon' be a man
Women, women, women wanna dance
And do the nasty, all night
Every time I get excited
She gon' ask me every time
I'm just walkin' with my baby
Stylin' while my side bitch lookin' at me crazy (lookin' at me crazy)
You ain't got that money, get the fuck up out my way then (way then)
Stop with all that hot shit, bitch, what is you sayin'? (Woo)
I'm still dangerous with no gang-gang
I'm just walkin' with my baby (oh, oh, oh)
Bang-bang (oh)
New three-sixty you'll get hit with that three-eighty (oh, yeah)
