LMB DG released his new single, “Trust Me,” via Capitol Records. Atop a haunting keyboard melody, he delivers a powerful declaration of self-reliance and victory over those who would bring him to his knees. The Los Angeles-based artist wrote the track with Chase The Money and Desro, who also served as producers. Stream “Trust Me,” from DG’s forthcoming mixtape, HERE. Watch for the official video to premiere soon.
“Trust Me” follows DG’s viral hit “Pull Up,” which has now surpassed 30 million combined global streams. Praising his “fast bars and rhythmic verses,” EARMILK said, “’Pull Up’ has a classic hip-hop and R&B sound, LMB DG toggles between melodic vocals and quick, structured raps. Each bar describes his triumphant grind for the finer things in life.” View the gritty official video for “Pull Up,” which was directed by Picture Perfect (A Boogie Wit Da Hoodie, French Montana, Cardi B), HERE.
About LMB DG
DG was born to deliver the ghetto gospel, music for survivors. Fueled by memories of his troubled Los Angeles neighborhood and the years he spent honing a powerful voice in his church choir, the West Coast artist freely spills his soul over solemn trap beats. He spins tales of tragedy, triumph, romance and everything in between, creating anthems that sit at the intersection of despair and inspiration, drawing from a life that’s been filled with unexpected twists and turns.
Born DeGabriel Floyd to a mother from Trinidad and Tobago and a father from Illinois, DG remembers riding around in the car with his dad, listening to Boyz II Men and Michael Jackson. Inspired by their melodies, he began singing in church with his sister. To this day, Boyz II Men remain one of his favorite groups. Check out DG’s soulful acapella take on their chart-topping 1992 hit “End of the Road” HERE.
When he was only nine, DG‘s father died of lung cancer. Inspired by his dad’s love of football, DG began to focus on making his own gridiron dreams a reality. By his senior year of high school, he had earned a full scholarship to play at the University of Texas. While preparing for his freshman season, DG learned he had a congenital condition that narrows the spine. He announced his retirement from football in December 2019. Turning to music as a way of coping, he quickly found that highly personal songs like “Long Nights” and “Pull Up” resonated with others.
“Now I know I’m not alone, and other people can know they’re not alone, too,” says LMB DG.
