Life, Values & Legacy: Our Chat with RealYungG of Joliet IL

We’re looking forward to introducing you to RealYungG . Check out our conversation below.

RealYungG , we’re thrilled to have you with us today. Before we jump into your intro and the heart of the interview, let’s start with a bit of an ice breaker: What battle are you avoiding?
The battle that I am battling is giving up on myself when times get hard staying focused from all distractions while building my dreams/goals

Can you briefly introduce yourself and share what makes you or your brand unique?
Born in the city of Chicago, but now repping his hometown of Joliet, IL, Greg Collins jr, better known as RealyungG found his love for music early. After many years of enjoying the music his parents exposed him to, G decided to start rapping at the age of 14. He is no stranger to making music, dropping his first album “Introduction of Yung G” back in 2009. Since then, RealYungG has released 10+ projects and toured all over the US. /since 2017 he has gained noteriety and developed a fan base for his unorthodox flow and unforgettable hooks. Steadily progressing, RealyungG has not only built the YGN brand (Yung Greatness Nation) but also a strong network of industry connections while remaining an independent artist with no major outside funding.

Great, so let’s dive into your journey a bit more. Who taught you the most about work?
My father taught me the most about hard work and working hard building your dreams making sure you do what you need to do to help make your dreams come true.

What did suffering teach you that success never could?
Suffering taught me that when you down on your luck there will be nobody in your corner to help you rebuild yourself but when you are successful everybody comes around to benefit off your success.

I think our readers would appreciate hearing more about your values and what you think matters in life and career, etc. So our next question is along those lines. Whom do you admire for their character, not their power?
I admire my brother teddy swims he showed me a lot of love while being at the top and still remaining human that’s what it’s all about knowing that you are a star but still giving back showing love to people who you may inspire

Okay, so before we go, let’s tackle one more area. When do you feel most at peace?
I feel most at peace when I am alone when I have time to myself to think not on social media praying and meditating
