Is hip hop dead? The question has remained unanswered until now. Gem, a Brooklyn born and Haitian bred native, has set the pace to breathe new life of sound into the industry. As a youngster Gem fell in love with the captivating musical influence of Michael Jackson, Bob Marley, Boyz ll Men, The Fugees, Biggie Smalls and Jay-Z.

Acquiring a genuine love for rhyming and rhythmic sounds Gem began to toy with the notion of reciting short stanzas. With pen to pad Gem embarked upon, what can now be considered a new wave of hip hop.

Working with imaginative sounds fashioned by Mona Liisa Productions Gem has sparked the interest of industry insiders, grabbed the attention of new fans and has set the pace for all that follow.

Working on his debut album entitled What I Need; Gem has discovered that his aim is not only to be a great artist but to become an industry mogul.
