From bedroom producer to bass music trendsetter, G-REX, real name Michael Sweeney, has turned his distinct signature style into a sonic revolution. Born and bred in Detroit, Michigan, G-REX unexpectedly took the industry by storm when he released his now-iconic single “Babatunde” with Peekaboo in 2018. Spearheading a new trend among fellow producers in the scene, G-REX’s freeform flair quickly captured the attention of fans and artists alike.

Inspired by his love for horror films and rap music, G-REX’s blood-spattered, versatile sound appears on labels such as OWSLA/Atlantic, Wakaan, Deadbeats, Never Say Die, Subsidia, and more. In 2023, G-REX cemented himself as major player in the scene with the hit release “BADDERS” in collaboration with Skrillex, Peekaboo, and Flowdan. Read more on Last.fm.
