Hometeam Records went through several growing pains with different artists coming and going from the tiny studio in the managers old bedroom. Artists came and went, but a group of four remained strong and showed a potential for great musical chemistry. These four artists, Drastik, J.B., Kar2n, and Go-Rilla, began performing on mixtapes as Hometeam Records. The more they worked together, the stronger their musical chemistry became. They had a sound like no other. As Hometeam Records evolved, so did the group of four that had started the label and made it what it is today. Yung Tuk later joined; adding more diversity to the group and bringing more sound and energy to an already tightly knit group of artists. Deuce 81 GAGE is not just a random group of artists, but five determined friends pushing each other to be stronger better artists. This determination and loyalty is what makes their music uniquely different than all the rest. So what does it mean?
One of the marks of a true Deuce 81 G.A.G.E fan is knowing what it stands for.
Deuce represents 2 and when put with 81 this creates the area code in which the group all originates from-281. G.A.G.E stands for Get a Grip Easy. This group of guys has what it takes to catapult their label, Hometeam Records, into the next big thing. Get a Grip Easy in simple terms means making money easy. For any other group it would be a stretch of the imagination to believe that a group of five high school kids could easily make money mixing their own beats and rapping as a group, but that is a perfectly matched group, created from humble beginnings brought together to create something new and different and ready to blow up the scene. Soon everyone will know exactly what Deuce 81 G.A.G.E means. And the boys of Hometeam Records will go out chunking the Deuce and Gripping it easy!
