Growing up in West Oakland provided Guap FKA @GuapDad4000 (born Akeem Hayes) with a vast treasure chest of invaluable inspiration, encouraging him early on in life to explore his innate talents as a multihyphenate creative and eager student of the game.
Guap's profound sense of humor, paired with his aptitude for commanding attention, translated organically into his lighthearted freestyles and ignited his interest in developing his well-rounded capacities as a vocalist. While navigating an upbringing challenged by his both of parents being in and out of jail at oft overlapping time frames, Guapdad 4000 began operating out of a necessity to both survive and take care of his siblings and grandmother.
Driven by his greater desire to rise above such calamitous circumstances, he turned to illicit means to make money, such as credit card fraud and petty theft, a path accented by ups and downs that later provided ample material for his original content. Guapdad called on his fans to choose the name for his debut, resulting in the selected title Dior Deposits.
While his brand is grounded in individuality, the album doubles as a reflection of that, speaking to putting work in and investing in what it takes to be successful against all odds.

We have met a lot of artists since our 2008 beginnings and it has been very interesting to see, hear, and learn how things have evolved for them. We talked live with some of these artists so you can hear about their trial and tribulations. Hear about the pitfalls they didn’t know existed, until they fell in them, and learn about the misinformation out there that could be holding you back from opportunities.
We want to give you the lessons (from experience) that many artists, including ourselves, wish they’d received.
Panelists:
• Jarren Benton (Artist)
• Crooked I (Artist)
