]]> Champaign, Illinois’ Gatson shares his new EP titled ‘Draft Day’ where he boldly shares his hunger for making it in the rap game. Draft Day is an outstanding body of work where Gatson proves that this is his year. After the death of his best friend from police brutality he invested more in his craft. He felt that nothing was helping him move on and he struggled with a deep depression that rooted in him.  Coming out of the anchoring depression, he blended his rhymes with rhythm, dedicating himself to finding a positive outlet for his pent-up sadness and sense of loss and anger. Through music, he unapologetically allows the world to hear his unabashed thoughts and crafting tales about his inner turmoil, weaving his world view into his lyrics.

Standout Tracks like “Foundation” and “Visions” are relatable and transparent and we can see these records really taking off and quickly finding a home in the hearts of those with similar experiences. With the different obstacles hes overcome he put together a classic EP that is set to solidify his name in the hip-hop game. Stream ‘Draft Day’ as it is available everywhere for streaming. Also, follow Gatson everywhere @iamgatson!
