We had the good fortune of connecting with GME Tay Official and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi GME Tay, where are your from? We’d love to hear about how your background has played a role in who you are today?
I am from Lorain,Ohio Southside to be exact. My up bringing wasn’t too bad just regular kid who had big dreams on being successful in life. I always been into music when i was little so as i got older i learned more skills & ideas on how to perfect my craft so i can show the world my art

Alright, so let’s move onto what keeps you busy professionally?
What sets me apart from others is i’m authentic. Everything i say in my lyrics are my true feelings in that exact moment when i’m recording. I’m most proud of my growth in my music cause when i first started out i was actually terrible & not telling the truth but once i took a step back & realized i was gonna have to change my ways & be relatable people began to listen to my music. I still feel like im upcoming but no it isnt easy at all because not everyone is going to support but at the end of the day i continue to keep pushing because i know one day they’ll all be cheering my name & singing along. I want the world to know its ok to be yourself & if you want something you can get it just put in hard work & dedication & watch how it all pays off in the long run

Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.
My city is pretty small so we dont really have much but i would take them to a place called happys pizza or a hispanic corner store on my side of town

The Shoutout series is all about recognizing that our success and where we are in life is at least somewhat thanks to the efforts, support, mentorship, love and encouragement of others. So is there someone that you want to dedicate your shoutout to?
First person i wanna give a shoutout to is God because without him nun of this would be possible. Also my family/friends such as my mom, cousin GME AJ Official & close friends Zee2Paid, YRN Mirr & Diamond Evette. These are people that keep me motivated so that i stay on my feet & get closer to reaching the next level
