Detroit rapper Tee Grizzley rolled through the studio to discuss his background, the three years he served, for home invasion, and he dropped the single “First Day Out” a few days later.
The track, produced by Helluva, has over 12 million YouTube views and 5.5. million Spotify streams, helping him ink a new record deal with 300 Entertainment.
During our discussion, I brought up to Tee Grizzley how localized the track is but it tells a story for listeners outside of Detroit to feel comfortable being in his shoes via a road map to the crimes that landed him in jail.
