From the streets of Augusta, Georgia, emerges an artist whose music is as raw as his story—Gabriel Coker, better known as YUNG ZHO. Influenced by the likes of Hunxho, No Cap, SZA, Drake, and NBA YoungBoy, YUNG ZHO brings a unique blend of gritty Southern hip-hop and heartfelt emotion that makes his sound unforgettable.
For YUNG ZHO, music isn’t just art—it’s survival. He describes his style as real, raw, and deeply personal. Every lyric is rooted in lived experiences—pain, betrayal, love, and the fight to keep moving forward. “I don’t just rap to impress, I rap to express,” he explains. His music becomes therapy, not only for himself but for listeners who may feel unseen or unheard.
His recent singles, No Love and Rockout, perfectly capture this approach. No Love embodies the sting of betrayal and heartlessness, while Rockout channels anger and controlled chaos. Both tracks reflect his ability to turn life’s hardest moments into powerful anthems that resonate with fans.
Despite being early in his journey, YUNG ZHO has already reached a major milestone—building a fanbase of 5–10k monthly listeners in just 42 days. He credits this growth to his authenticity and his strategic use of social media. From running ads to creating short-form content, he engages his audience while staying true to himself. Collaborations with his partner Dxwnbad also add another layer to his evolving sound.
But for YUNG ZHO, the mission is bigger than numbers. His long-term goal is to share his music with the world and eventually take it on tour. At the core of everything he creates is one simple hope: that listeners feel it. Because when you press play on a YUNG ZHO track, you’re not just hearing music—you’re hearing his truth.
