Kyle Thomas Clow, known professionally as Grip is an American hip hop musician from the Eastside of Atlanta, Georgia.
His debut project was Porch. His followup full length album was Snubnose.
Grip signed a deal with Shady Records and Interscope Records in 2021. His first full length album with Shady, I Died for This!? dropped shortly after, featuring collaborations Eminem, Kenny Mason, and Wiley From Atlanta.[1]
Career
[edit]In July 2021, Eminem listened to Grip's second album Snubnose. Eminem said: "It was really refreshing to hear a new artist so focused on making a conceptual project and it caught my attention."[2] The two artists met up and conversed about a record deal for Clow to join on Eminem's label Shady Records. Grip announced his third studio album, and the first under Shady Records, titled I Died for This!?, which was released in August 27, 2021.[2]
