06.01.2016
Critical Praise for Chevy Woods:
“Chevy flies high and gives the world an in depth look into his life as a Taylor Gang aviator.” – XXL Mag
“The TGOD rapper hasn’t stopped grinding…” – HotNewHipHop
“He’s proven that you can make money without selling out to a label, gaining more than 300,000 followers on Twitter and 67,000 downloads of his mixtape, Gangland 3.” – Pittsburgh City Paper
The Song:
Taylor Gang Ent. rapper Chevy Woods celebrates success on his “All the Way Up” Freestyle, co-opting the New York anthem to lay down bars about jetsetting and living the life. Woods rhymes atop the booming production, rapping “I’m fresh from Dubai, unload the jet/ I be on the flight you will never catch.” Prior to “All the Way Up,” Woods celebrated his birthday with “Forever,” which followed And the Story Goes…, a 4-part video EP that begins with the Pittsburgh rapper reflecting on his adolescence and contemplating career paths. Featuring Styles P and Dave East, the project’s final track found Woods embracing successes from I.D. Labs recording studio where he and Wiz Khalifa met and began harnessing their talent as independent artists in the mid 2000’s while tying in clips from a vibrant hometown performance. Directed by Wiley Films, the video EP released as a free download via Taylor Gang Ent.
Chevy Woods is showing no signs of stopping. With an album slated for release later this year, he’s been consistently releasing treats for his fans. In addition to “Forever,” And the Story Goes…, and his collection of freestyles titled The Freemix, he recently teamed up with buzzing Atlanta rapper Rich the Kid for “Wit My Dogs,” a Nard & B.-produced anthem for celebrating with the homies. As Wiz Khalifa’s OG, Woods delivers a relatable scenario atop poignant production that hustlers and aspiring anythings can grasp – keep your eyes on the prize, stay focused, and never consider losing an option. The aforementioned And the Story Goes… EP was a follow-up to last year’s The 48 Hunnid Project, where Woods teamed up with DeJ Loaf, Post Malone, OG Maco, and Rico Love. Beyond music, Woods has recently been in the spotlight for his culinary skills, which have been featured by Edible Ink and First We Feast.

Chevy Woods Background:
Chevy Woods has been building up momentum with his mixtapes Red Cup Music, The Cook Out, and the Gangland series, progressing his sound with each release. After years of writing and recording in his home studio, Chevy traded in his keyboard for cash to pay for studio time. In 2004, while recording at Pittsburgh’s I.D. Labs Studios, Chevy encountered Wiz Khalifa and the two instantly formed a bond. “Me and Wiz, we always had each other’s backs. Since we were both recording at I.D. Labs at the same time, we would hold each other down,” Chevy has explained. “Even if it was just picking up Wendy’s for the other one on our way to the studio.”
