Gavlyn is 23 year old LA based rapper. She is a member of the Organized Threat movement and part of the Broken Complex record label. Organized Threat is a collective of the international artists that aims to support good quality hip hop and keep it fresh, poetic and therefore timeless. Perfect place for somebody like Gavlyn to grow creatively and without any inhibitions.Gavlyn has been rapping since tender age of 16 and she has been touring Europe since the beginning of 2013, but I have only discovered her this summer.This year I was for the first time at Montreux Jazz festival as a Gimme A Beat and I was blown away not only by the concerts that I've seen but also with people that I met. It seemed to me that everybody at this festival: organizers, staff, members of the press and visitors were true music lovers. So one evening, while waiting for Angel Haze concert, I was chatting with local group of people and one of the guys living in the area asked me if I heard about Gavlyn. He saw her live in March and he was totally blown away by her music, her personality and of course, her live performance. I wrote down the name, checked her when I was back in my hotel room and instantly loved what I heard. And then I realized that she is having a gig in Zurich, in the next few days, just at the time when I was suppose to be back from the festival.I immediately reached out to the people that could help me with setting up an interview. Several days after, few hours before Gavlyn's concert, I was chatting with this talented, young artist. It was a perfect summer day and we were in the back yard of the house of her friends, taking a break from a BBQ and listening to some chilled hip hop music. Time flew by while I was chatting with Gavlyn about her life, European tour and her music. She was refreshingly open, raw and honest, very much like her lyrics. After that, perfect flow of the summer day continued into the night, with her gig at Gonzo. It felt very good to be there, feeling the good vibes of the people who truly appreciate hip hop music and embracing the talent of the young artist with bright future ahead of her..------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Tune in tonight (18.11.2013) for ...
