Money Gang Tony, a rising recording artist from Williamston, North Carolina, and now based in Atlanta, Georgia, is making waves in the hip-hop scene. His journey goes far beyond the pursuit of fame — music became his sanctuary during some of the most challenging moments in his life. With a sound rooted in raw emotion, personal storytelling, and a drive for authenticity, Money Gang Tony has carved out a unique space in the industry. Having already released 29 songs, one album, and three EPs, he’s not only prolific but also deeply relatable to listeners. His journey, shaped by struggle and determination, continues to evolve as he works on his second album and ventures into new creative avenues.
Your music has deep personal connections rooted in your life experiences. Can you share one of the most pivotal moments in your life that shaped your musical journey?
Growing up in poverty motivated me to pursue a career in music. When I was locked up music became my outlet to express myself….and I found out I’m pretty good at this.
Releasing 29 songs, including an album and EPs is a huge accomplishment. What motivates you to continue creating at such a rapid pace, and how do you keep evolving your sound?
What motivates me is my vision seeing myself on bigger stages in front of bigger crowds. I keep evolving my sound through practice. I’m always trying different beats, melodies and sounds.
You’ve opened for major artists like Jim Jones and collaborated with talents such as Destinee Lynn and Lil Wookie. How have these experiences influenced your growth as an artist?
Being alongside such notable artists is showing me that everything I envision is possible. It’s like a reward for my hard work.
What is a super fun fact about yourself that many people are not aware of?
In addition to developing my musical talents, I also work in corporate America. However, something that I truly get a kick out of is playing Call of Duty and cooking at home. I love cooking because everytime you cook it’s like doing a little project. I can turn nothing into something!
How would you define your journey so far as a music artist?
Money Gang Tony: Life changing! Music brought a spark to my life. I always have something new and exciting to do instead of just getting off work and hanging with my friends.
What themes or stories can fans expect from your upcoming album?
Pain, struggle, consciousness and vibes.
What’s your vision for the next phase of your career?
In this next phase of my career, I vision making this my full time occupation so that I don’t need an additional job. I really want to be able to help other artists.
What advice would you give to other artists who, like you, use music as a way to cope with life’s challenges? How can they stay motivated and true to their voice?
Be yourself and speak what’s on your mind and heart. Don’t follow in anyone else’s footsteps because what works for somebody else might not work for you.
As Money Gang Tony continues to expand his creative horizons, both in music and writing, his journey serves as an inspiration for others who seek to turn life’s challenges into art. Keep an eye out for his upcoming album and future projects — this is just the beginning.
