History of the Bay: Baby Gas

Baby Gas is a rapper from East Oakland who has been grinding independently for over a decade. Born to undocumented immigrant parents of Mexican and Salvadorian descent, Gas was one of the only Latinos in his neighborhood and adapted to Black culture. At only age 15, he linked up with Goldtoes and started the Oakland chapter of Thizz Latin. Since then he's been putting out a steady string of projects, became a father, and is currently pushing his latest album "Siempre Ghetto."Baby Gas "Siempre Ghetto" Album: https://music.empi.re/siempreghettoSiempre Ghetto Tour: https://www.eventbrite.com/cc/siempre-ghetto-tour-4381223--For promo opportunities on the podcast, e-mail info@historyofthebay.com--History of the Bay Spotify Playlist: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/3ZUM4rCv6xfNbvB4r8TVWU?si=9218659b5f4b43aaOnline Store: https://dregsone.myshopify.com Follow Dregs One:Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/artist/1UNuCcJlRb8ImMc5haZHXF?si=poJT0BYUS-qCfpEzAX7mlAInstagram: https://instagram.com/dregs_oneTikTok: https://tiktok.com/@dregs_oneTwitter: https://twitter.com/dregs_oneFacebook: https://facebook.com/dregsone41500:00 Intro01:32 New album07:48 Family history11:09 Immigration25:20 Father’s deportation34:11 Oakland39:18 Black & Brown45:46 Thizz Latin51:04 Being homeless at 1557:42 Latin rappers1:04:27 Connecting with fans
