Despite a childhood detour to California and Alabama, Guilty Simpson's destiny
is intimately linked to the city of his birth, Detroit, in 1980. The son and
grandson of musicians, he began rapping at an early age as part of The Almighty
Dreadnaughtz collective on the local scene, which was already rich in strong
elements such as Eminem, D12, Black Milk and Slum Village. Author of numerous
mixtapes and never stingy with collaborations, he also has to his credit the
studio albums Ode to the Ghetto (2008), O.J. Simpson (2010) and Detroit's Son
(2015).
