D.O. Gibson

Gibson is marking his two-decade milestone by publishing his second book on October 1st also, On This Grind, containing additional knowledge gleaned from the music business, lessons he says can be useful for entrepreneurs and students in all fields. “I learned early that I would need to take charge of my career if I wanted to have success. When I started learning the grant system, artists would come to me for advice, and I’ve helped over 100 artists get grants for their music. I’ve always loved the entrepreneurial side of hip-hop. That’s one thing that separates hip-hop from other genres—rappers often talk about the business side of music in their lyrics.”

Canadian recording artist, rapper, and singer-songwriter D.O. Gibson prepares our ears for his forthcoming album with its lead single and title track, "Still Driven (feat. JRDN)."
