He's been writing his own lyrics since the age of 7 years old, he and the hiphop artist S.E.L.P.H. recorded a single with Producer Kuality of Kuality Records, tiltled "This is how we do" where Amauri The Great(A.T.G.) spit " I can sing, dance and i run fast, if you ever try me, you'll end up last." Since writing his lyrics for that song, he's written dozens of songs since. Going thru his earlier years of grade school, he was involved in chorus and the band. Through these avenues he's won countelss amount of rewards for his artistry. His breakout performances was at the age of 7(in 2006) when he performed in the world renown Allstars Talent Show Network, and won first place. From that performace, he was granted an opportunity to be on the World Famous Apollo in Harlem NY. However, his dad, didnt allow him to participate, because of numerous reasons. From that same peroformance, it also opened up an opportunity for him to host the Allstars Talent Show network, and he's currently hosting it(2011), which takes place twice a year in the Atlanta area. He's performed in a multitude of open mics, talent shows, showcases and community charity events throughout the atlanta area since that first performance with the Allstars.

SOUND/STYLE:
A.T.G. likes to describe his sound as clean, meaningful, skillful, and diverse. He's into witty metaphors, similies and punchlines, with thought provoking concepts. He views it as a lifestyle, not just entertainment. He studies the art and craft of the greats who came before him. He displays lyrical ability beyond the average artist you'll hear on mainstream radio, or many kids his age. He'd like to bring the true art of "rhyming" to the mainstream, and not just songs about females, sex, drugs, guns etc.
