History of the Bay Day 10.19.24 - ticket link: https://www.tixr.com/groups/midwaysf/events/history-of-the-bay-113087 -- Transitioning from the streets to the rap game after surviving 9 gunshots, 22nd Jim formerly known as Offset Jim has been on a consistent wave for the last few years. His meteoric rise was supported by appearances with ALLBLACK, who hails from the same Murder Dubs section of East Oakland. Jim credits his success in music to his popularity in Oakland and known authenticity to the gritty street life he portrays in his music. This has led to recognition in the Bay and beyond, including shoutouts from NBA all-star Klay Thompson and Drake's OVO label and clothing line. Feeling like he's accomplished everything there is to do in the Bay Area, Jim is now setting his sights beyond the Bay and looking to take his career even further. -- For promo opportunities on the podcast, e-mail: [email protected] -- Produced by DEO @deo415, videography by @mvp_kingced --- History of the Bay Spotify Playlist: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/3ZUM4rCv6xfNbvB4r8TVWU?si=9218659b5f4b43aa Online Store: https://dregsone.myshopify.com Follow Dregs One: Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/artist/1UNuCcJlRb8ImMc5haZHXF?si=poJT0BYUS-qCfpEzAX7mlA Instagram: https://instagram.com/dregs_one TikTok: https://tiktok.com/@dregs_one Twitter: https://twitter.com/dregs_one Facebook: https://facebook.com/dregsone415 00:00 Intro 01:36 7 years in the rap game so far 04:35 Growing up in Murder Dubs 08:51 Berkeley High 13:29 Getting shot 9 times 17:41 Oakland rap influences 21:34 Starting to rap; “Offset” rap name 29:12 OVO co-sign; Drake vs Kendrick 31:29 Klay Thompson 33:40 Detroit connections 36:11 Limits to the Bay; major labels 41:31 Features 46:02 Upcoming projects --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/historyofthebay/support
