RapTV caught up with Sheff G on the eleventh episode of their Firsts series. “Sheff G On Being Locked Up, Donald Trump, Sleepy Hallow, & More” has been viewed over 32K times since premiering on September 16.
As described by RapTV on YouTube: “On our eleventh episode of Firsts, Sheff G reveals what he learned during his time behind bars and what he did on his first day out. He also speaks on his endorsement of Donald Trump, almost jumping Sleepy Hallow when they first met, and more Firsts!”
Sheff’s story is as raw and unfiltered as his music. From his first live performance to the time spent behind bars, every chapter of his life adds another layer to his sound. Reflecting on the first rapper who showed him love, his journey takes a unique turn with a presidential endorsement early in his career. Like many young artists, Sheff looked up to 50 Cent, shaping his no-nonsense attitude. Never one to shy away from a confrontation, he recalls almost jumping Sleepy Hallow, a wild moment that further fuelled his early rise. His first track, penned after an altercation at school, marked the start of his undeniable drive.
The rapper’s chef hat tattoo isn’t just ink — it’s a symbol of his commitment to his craft, learning from the streets to trust no one but himself. His first day out after being locked up was life-changing, almost losing his life soon after. Through all the haters, Sheff remains unapologetic about what growing up in New York and the rap game taught him — resilience. Now a father, Sheff’s focus is on bossing up and providing for his family. With his next project on the horizon, he’s ready to show the world how he’s made it out of the trenches and why the advice he gives is the blueprint for survival.
