George Young grew up on the Northside of Houston, TX. As a teenager George became an avid fan of the local hip hop community that was blooming around him, artists such as Scarface, UGK, DJ Screw and the Screwed Up Click, and The Swishahouse All-Stars. But, George didn't just keep an eye on the regional scene, he was also a fan of artists such as The Notorious B.I.G. and Jay-Z. As George grew, so did his creativity, and while attending high school at Booker T. Washington, George met an aspiring rapper by the name of GP. After helping GP out by drawing a logo for his rap group known as Da True G's, George also helped Da True G's by writing a couple hooks for a few of their songs. GP noticed the talent and gift George had at putting words together and recruited and persuaded George to give rap a shot. George did. He wrote and recorded a couple verses on a few of Da True G's CDs and after making a name for himself around campus, George Young and GP decided to leave Da True G's and start their own record label, which came to be known as Paperboy Productions.
As co-CEO of Paperboy Productions, George also began producing music and the label began to gain popularity throughout Texas and the South. After releasing a series of mixtapes as a group and working with artists such as 50/50 Twin, Magno, OG Ron C, The Wreckin Yard, Jokaman, and Dorrough Music, George Young is now ready to branch out and begin his solo career. He is the first solo artist from Paperboy Productions, and all eyes are on him, and all ears are open as he takes the reigns. George has recorded so many tracks for his much anticipated solo mixtape, 'My Name Is George Young, Vol. 1', that he has decided to release another mixtape as a precusor to 'My Name Is George Young, Vol. 1', which will be titled, 'We Talkin Bout Practice.' 'We Talkin Bout Practice' will be flooding the streets and the internet on July 7, 2008, with 'My Name Is George Young, Vol. 1' following soon after. So, be on the look-out for both of these hot upcoming releases!
