Grip caught the ear of Eminem’s manager and Shady Records president Paul Rosenberg, who brought him to Eminem’s attention. “Grip is the type of artist that brings you into his world and expresses himself through a complete composed body of work,” said Rosenberg. “If true album artists in this era are a rare breed–then Grip is a unicorn! We’re excited for him to join the Shady Records family.”
Added Grip, “It was one of those full circle moments because I grew up on Eminem so to have him reach out and let me know how dope my shit is was so cool. Excited to partner with Shady/Interscope and get the music out on a larger platform.”
