Growing Up in a broken home, Vaughn Raphael was always on the move. Miami, Immokalee, & Ft. Myers have all called Gunsmoke a resident. "I moved alot, but music never changed it was always here. I remember me and my friends would get on my mothers kareokee machine and rap." Back then he was know as "Checker" In 2002, Vaughn found out that his rap skills were above the average. He changed his name to Von Da G and began to record on his computer. During The year Von Dad G wa arrested on a theft charge and had to spend time in the Dade County Correction system. " I was just floored by the whole situation, I knew that it was time to change." In 2003 He met a Ant"M1A" in tallahassee and began to work together on music. "I give alot of credit to my partner Ant, he helped me step out the box with my rhymes." The two put together the single "Oh Well," the song never made it far, the studio they used to record was raided and the owners were arrested and charged. "It left me up shit creek, cuss i kno i wanna do music." But now it is 2007 and M1A anf Gunsmoke are prepared for their rightful spot in southern music. "Slept on too long is like me talkin to everybody, it juss feels right. Me and ant was been supposed to blow." With Gunsmoke working on the album and promoting the two are bound for success. With the help of Thrill Da Playa (of 69 boyz) help Gunsmoke has began to perfom at the Perry's Lounge Apollo Tuesdays, and he continues to network for his Net WorthFIYA
