2. Swift wordplay, sharp delivery, as well as a laid back flow are a few
characteristics that come to mind when describing the microphone
presence of Andy Gyamfi. Born April 30, 1991, Andy “A Smooth”
Gyamfi was the youngest of three children. Growing up in the Bronx,
NY, he was influenced by the art of hip-hop at an early age. Raised in a
single parent household, he witnessed the hardships of life as his
mother struggled to maintain a stable environment. Known as a quiet
child, Andy began expressing his inner thoughts and feelings through
poetry and rhymes. Gaining recognition for his effortless rhyming
abilities, he began to take rapping seriously. In an effort to sharpen his
skills, Smooth often remixed the songs of the artists he looked up to.
Rappers such as Biggie Smalls, Jay-Z, Jadakiss, Nas, and Fabolous are a
few rappers who influence A Smooth. Consistently writing songs and
long hours in the studio are reflected in A Smooth’s songs as well as
his character. Humble and level-headed, Smooth is on the pathway to
success. He is affiliated with “Real Rich Records”, formulated by
himself, and childhood friend Kevin Ayayee. As an artist and co-
founder of Real Rich, A Smooth has graced the stage of many
showcases around New York City hoping to be discovered. At the age
of 16, he left Hot 97’s Miss Jones in amazement as he captivated the
crowd with his lyrical ability. Through determinaton and persistance, A
Smooth is slowly but surely a rising star.
