Charles Grayson
Charles Grayson (artist name Chuck G) has been rapping since he was a teenage. Born and raised in Pittsburgh, Charles fell in love with Hip Hop at a young age. Writing helps him express my emotions and challenges him to find new ways to express them. Hip Hop is a vocal art that came from necessity by young African Americans in the inner city. Charles feels that it’s a honor to carry on the tradition of storytelling.
“And that's the great thing about art, rather if it's music, painting, poetry, wood carving, whatever type of artistic gift people have when they get to express [themselves]. It's a release of a negative energy, sometimes of a positive energy. But it's not caged in.”
