Savage Ga$p on Tour
In just four years, the eccentric hip-hop and relationship-driven emo rapper Savage Ga$p, a.k.a. Gaspare Magaddino, has amassed four albums, more than 2 million monthly listeners on Spotify, a platinum single and a plethora of adoring fans. And now he's embarking on his first headline tour. The tour features Savage Ga$p with special guests Oliver Francis, KAMAARA and Supachefm on specific dates.
The single "Flamin' Hot Cheetos," a collaboration with his good friend KESHORE, was Savage Ga$p's introduction to the hip-hop scene in 2018. In July 2018, he released his first solo album, Thinking of You, Wherever You Are. A prolific composer, he followed up with i guess i'm over it (title track featuring shinigami and convolk) in 2019, the long halloween (feat. lilbootycall and David Shawty) in 2020 and forever yours (title track featuring 1nonly) in 2021.
In 2020, Savage Ga$p quickly gained notoriety on TikTok when his song "Pumpkins Scream in the Dead of Night" (feat. shinigami) went viral.
Savage Ga$p is a huge fan of all things Halloween, as evidenced by a few of his song and album titles, including 2022's "sorry im a haunted house," his first single as an independent artist. His hit single "E-GIRLS ARE RUINING MY LIFE!" (with CORPSE) went platinum in March 2022. Savage Ga$p's live performances are known for being high-energy and artfully playful. It's a ticket you don't want to miss.
Savage Ga$p Live in Concert
Gaspare Magaddino was born on December 29, 1998, and considers Fort Knox, Kentucky, home after growing up in a military family. The name "Savage Ga$p" is a combination of a high school nickname and a shortened version of his first name, Gaspare. He says Gaspare is pronounced like Casper with a G, which he commemorated with a tattoo of Casper the Ghost on his left arm.
He played soccer in high school and originally planned to go to college to become a teacher, but an ankle injury forced him to take his senior year off from soccer, and that's when he discovered a talent for music. In an interview with Internet Hippy in 2021 he says, "if it weren't for me hurting my ankle, I definitely would have never tried music or thought about it."
Savage Ga$p says his music is influenced more by what's happening around him but cites Mac Demarco, Oliver Francis and Rex Orange County as musicians he's inspired by.
