Born Las Vegas, Nevada, FineAzzGigi is a rising female emcee who’s upbringing offered no silver spoon. Gigi, whose real name is Egreta Stone, spent some time growing up in the city of Pittsburgh before moving to Atlanta. She set out to lead a positive example for her siblings and put her pen to work while starting her nursing career. Fast forward two years later, Gigi had her first studio session. Although never to be released, it was the sample of approval she needed to take music seriously.
“I started making writing songs in 2017. Eventually gained enough confidence to start rapping out loud. That is when my family realized that I could actually rap,” she states. I had my first studio session in 2019 where I made a song that never got released called ‘BBA.’ After that, I realized I really could actually rap and I was good at it. I was not just a pretty face and nice body that went in the studio and said some bull Shit like a lot of females.”
Egreta draws inspiration from the likes of Nicki Minaj, Mulatto, and Cardi B to name a few. With that being said, she’s releasing her debut on September 25. The single is titled “Like Me” and embodies what it means to be an independent woman walking in confidence. The record is inspiring by lessons Gigi learned during a recent breakup.
“I think style is very important being a female artist, style is something that can make you different and set you apart,” she states. “That’s what I’m going for. I don’t want to be like anyone or sound like anyone but Gigi.”
When it comes to Gigi, she’s a resilient artist to keep an eye on in 2020. Her goal is to further her education and become a Nurse Practitioner while climbing up the charts and becoming mainstream. Furthermore, she spoke on plans to open her own record label in the future.
“My fans can expect music that is gonna make them feel like yeah I’m that bitch. I’m very independent myself so my music definitely comes off that way,” Gigi states. “I want my fans to be on some cocky shit period. Expect visuals, choreography, and style that just different.”
