Critical Praise for Gemaine:
“We have a feeling this is only the beginning of a long-term career of stardom for Mr. Edwards.” – WatchLOUD
“At 19-years-old he shows not only a remarkable talent, but an exceptional passion and drive with a set of unlimited skills.”- GoodFellaMedia
The Song:
After amassing almost 3 million Soundcloud listens and dozens of Re-Vines, 20 year-old R&B newcomer Gemaine released his viral hit “Freaky” on iTunes. What originally began as a 6-second freestyle he recorded at a local Guitar Center has turned him into a rising star in the world of R&B.
Although the 20 year-old from Compton, California has emerged as a newcomer to the music industry, music has been a big part of his life since he could remember. At the behest of his parents who wanted him and his seven siblings to avoid the trappings of the street life outside their door, Gemaine spent most of his free time singing and making music at his church, known for its high caliber of musical performances. A trained pianist, Gemaine is looking to do more with his talents than just sing. His goal is to create music that, “makes people feel good and becomes an escape from their problems.” He is currently working on releasing his debut EP, entitled Curious.
