Born Keenon Daequan Ray Jackson on March 9, 1990, YG is a multi-platinum American rapper, songwriter, and entrepreneur from Compton, California. He first gained attention with his 2009 breakout single, “Toot It and Boot It,” produced by DJ Mustard and featuring Ty Dolla $ign. The record became a regional hit and helped launch his mainstream career.

A run of hit singles and albums—including “My Ni**a” (5x Platinum), “Who Do You Love?” (2x Platinum), “Big Bank” (5x Platinum), “Go Loko” (2x Platinum), My Krazy Life (Platinum), and Stay Dangerous (Gold), has solidified YG’s place as one of the defining voices of modern West Coast rap.

Now available, The Gentlemen’s Club finds YG entering a new chapter. With production from DTP and Ty Dolla $ign, alongside features from Pusha T, Shoreline Mafia, Tyler, The Creator, and others, the album addresses the conversations surrounding YG on social media while remaining true to the storytelling that has always defined his music.

The project is rooted in reflection, growth, and change. YG does not run from the noise, he confronts it, using the music to take listeners on a visual and emotional journey. The Gentlemen’s Club represents a space where men can speak openly about the things they often avoid: insecurity, accountability, personal growth, and becoming better versions of themselves.

With The Gentlemen’s Club Tour beginning September 10, YG is bringing this new era directly to his fans. The album marks a period of maturity, honesty, and evolution. He is no longer the same person the world once knew. This is the man he is today, finally able to live.
