Temple, Texas-raised singer-rapper Patrick Gamble AKA Pat G first popped up on the radar with two complete knockouts in 2018, and the following year both “Sometimes” as well as “Fight On” found themselves in a pivotal place on Gamble’s LP Whatever It Takes. Pat G’s gravitation towards bouncing, jazzy, and structurally complex beats has made Gamble an unmissable act for Austin hip-hop heads, highlighted by Gamble’s relentless onstage and in-studio energy, one that fully embodies his messages of spirituality, perseverance, and empowerment.
Yesterday Pat G dropped a video companion piece to Whatever It Takes’ acronymed title track (produced by Kris Keyz), putting him up in the pantheon of socially conscious contemporaries like Kendrick, Lupe, and Nas. So wish Gamble a happy birthday with a Spotify “follow” and a YouTube “like” on “W.I.T.”!
