When he was 14, he tried the basketball team and the nurse who did his physical exam checked his heart and said, “Your heartbeat is abnormal, irregular and you can die any day now.” It stopped Its64boy from ever chasing his dream for fear of losing his life. When he wasn’t selected for the game, Its64boy recorded music and it became his NBA. With a deeply rooted passion for music, he treats it every day like a sport and lives in it.

It all started when I, Gregory Its64boy Brown, was 4 years old and my pop DJ Skeet in the 1s and 2s, Smokey Robinson, The Beatles, to Dr. Dre, The Chronic. I always wanted to get on the microphone when they did freestyle, but they told me I was too young. As I got older, I used to do freestyle in front of the mirror while hitting the walls while my mom and pop were at work
Then I got my first CD & tape player for Christmas and recorded my first song “Don’t play with me” on my player. Attended college at Norfolk State University majoring in mass communication and minor in music technology, completing 4,000 unpaid hours of recording in the same studio Pharrell Williams snuck into to create and produce for talent at NSU. Getting the name 64 came from going back and forth from Richmond to Norfolk, where he worked with talent who rocked east and west. All of these milestones in my life inspired and motivated me to start the Stackin Up Entertainment LLC brand.
Its64boy got his name from Norfolk State University because you take 64 East to get from Richmond, Va to Norfolk, Va and 64 West to get back from Norfolk, Va, to Richmond, Va so they call me 64, ‘Cause I rock the east and the west
