Gio Agosta’s music career had humble beginnings, but now the Werribee South resident is preparing to launch his first album as a freestyle hip-hop artist.
“When I was about 12, I used to sit in my bedroom with my guitar singing Like A Rolling Stone over and over, and became a massive fan of Bob Dylan,” he says.
He discovered hip-hop and rap a few years later and fell for Lil Wayne, 2Pac and Biggie Smalls.
“I was exposed to multiple musical genres and began soaking up all these influences. I have blended these influences into my own music.”
Agosta’s album Real will be launched at 9pm, Saturday, at Revolver, 229 Chapel Street, Prahran.
