Rising Detroit rapper 42 Dugg opened up about his early music career during a recent interview. Fresh out of prison in 2017, he teamed up with the 42 Twins to begin releasing music, marking the start of his journey. His breakthrough came with the viral hit “Shut the F*** Up,” which amassed over 20 million views on YouTube, earning him his first million-view milestone. Despite the viral success, 42 Dugg says his daily life didn’t drastically change, but he began gaining recognition and booking paid shows. His first gig earned him $1,000, an experience he described as exciting yet nerve-wracking since he was shy about performing in front of friends. Following that, he released projects like *Young and Turnt*, featuring hits like “Dog Food” that further cemented his status in Detroit’s music scene. 42 Dugg’s story highlights the grind behind viral fame and how persistence led him to success.
