Popular in the Bay Area though relatively unknown elsewhere, Sage the Gemini is from Fairfield and is a member of the HBK Gang collective. He\'s best known for his singles \"Gas Pedal\" and \"Red Nose\" (both of which are included here), and his sound is custom-made for clubs, with tremendous low end, trippy synth modulations, minimalistic beats, and rhymes pretty much exclusively about partying, girls, and getting paid. Features abound: Iamsu! shares the mic on five tracks, while local homies Berner, Jay Ant, Kool John, Shady Bo, Eric Bellinger, Kehlani, August Alsina, and P-Lo also get busy. None other than Justin Bieber shows up for the \"Gas Pedal\" remix. It\'s impressive as much for its production (much of it by Sage himself) as the lyrics. Standouts include \"College Drop,\" \"Second Hand Smoke,\" \"Mad at Me,\" and \"Bad Girls.\"

Sage the Gemini of the Bay Area’s Heartbreak Gang collective has refined a sound that draws influence from frenetic dance-informed NorCal hyphy music and L.A. jerk music, with hints of the sleek “crunk&B” of Jazze Pha and Ciara. His chart-placing instructional dance floor drills are presently his livelihood, so his debut album Remember Me arrives with a mission: keep listeners on their feet, but show some range.
