Kickstarter

My name is Matt Gorman, better known to some as Taygo. I'm shooting the music video for my next single "Shots On Deck" in LA in late March, and I need your help in raising our budget to pay for everything from equipment rentals to props & wardrobe. I am lucky enough to have most of the talent working for free - they believe in the project, and my hope is that you will too.

"Shots On Deck" is a hip-hop party track with a twist; it is a high-energy yet honest take on the disgusting hilarity of a night out with friends. Much like my debut single "My Penis," this follow-up combines satire and humor with exceptional lyrical ability and flow. My music is highly relatable with pop influences, yet I always keep an emphasis on witty writing and an ear-catching flow that will keep you hitting repeat. This fresh combination is what might make me your favorite rapper's least favorite rapper!

I was born in Boston and grew up middle-class, but I never wanted to be an accountant or a lawyer. My dreams and aspirations were always beyond reason, but this gave me the tremendous drive to succeed. Now grown up, my game has matured but my goals are higher than ever. I am starting to realize my dream of seeing people listen to my music, and the feeling is indescribable. I feel incredibly fortunate to have the opportunity this project has given me, to be working with great talents like Kyle Morrison and George Watsky, and I want to do the track and concept justice. I need your help in making this project a success. Our goal is set, we've prepared what we can to nail this video, now we need you! Any funding beyond our goal will go toward paying for production and studio time of the next music video and full LP. Any backing is appreciated, please do what you can to support an independent artist and keep music growing!

Thank you!!
