Gospel Gabe was born Gabriel Wilson in the tough Streets of Brooklyn, New York. Growing up in the 80's Gabe spent much of his childhood very active in church with his grandfather. With his biological father being absent for the vast majority of his life. His grandfather was his primary father figure. Together they would sing Gospel songs as well as recite the holy word. Here is where he began to develop a lifelong relationship with the lord that would transcend the test of time. Along with the Christian Faith, Gospel was also heavily influenced by the hip hop music of the 80's and 90's. A time filled with dope MC's that rapped about real-life experiences and vision for the future. Artists such as Nas an Krs-One are whom he shared his flow and delivery after. However, he was very adamant that the overall narrative of his music be about God's grace, mercy and glory. Gospel Gabe strives to be a vessel through which God can convey his holy word.
