Based in Pittsburgh Pennsylvania, David 'Baby Byron' Shumba is known for being half of the hip-hop duo A Kid Called Gauwd along with Demetrius 'Ase' Dorsey. The partnership formed in late 2016, and they immediately began to work on their first project "All Thx to Drugz" which was released January first the following year. The project presented a unique mixture of contemporary, experimental, and conscious hip hop lyrics partnered with pop-like vocal segments.
In 2018, A Kid Called Gauwd released an EP titled "Drugz Demo" spawning the single "Maserti Rick". This single, took a different direction than their previous project presenting their listeners with a darker, street-level sound. Since the release of their debut project, A Kid Called Gauwd recorded and released 4 additional EPs "Save my Drugz for Later", "Drugz Sold Separately", "Don't Say No to Drugz", and "More Drugz IV Sale". The projects were received well, and the group currently has over three million streams across all music platforms. Their success also led to meetings with Warner Music Group and eventually the group signed with AWAL who represents dozens of known artists such as David Gray and deadmau5. On April, 20th Baby Byron will be releasing his first solo album called “Drugz Before the Flight” which will be his first time expressing everything he wants to say about his complicated life to his listeners. The project is will be released under Byron’s own label Gauwd Co. and will be available on all major streaming services.
