Shotgun Live

Electronic Press Kit

Raised in New Rochelle, New York by way of Barbados, Hip-Hop Artist Shotgun Live is ready to make his mark in the game. Citing himself as his biggest competition, he plans to deliver a flavor that is all his and unmatchable, just like DNA. Born Anthony Luke, Shotgun Live earned his name partly because of his lively personality and from a tradition of ringing in the New Year by shooting a shotgun. Inspired by fellow New Yorkers, 50 Cent, Biggie, Mobb Deep, Jay-Z and the Lox and other greats like Tupac and Snoop Dogg, he’s spent the last 12 years mastering his craft as a lyricist and preparing for his debut. Since 1999 he has completed 4 mix CD’s filled with heart, passion and originality. Adding to his resume, Shotgun has performed in several music showcases including ones for Def Jam and thisis50.com, cable TV shows in New York and on Youtube.com. He appears exclusively on the Shotgun and Suave show on Youtube. His main goal as an artist is to build his brand and become a beast on albums to come. Listeners everywhere need to refresh their iPods with his latest single “G Swag” available on iTunes. They will not be disappointed. Now living in Metro Atlanta, Shotgun operates as an independent artist and has plans to find his niche in the new Hollywood of the South.
