Donald Grunge (@donaldgrunge), a rising artist from Boston, premiered his debut album In Gleem I Trust and gave his city some music industry validity. For the first time in recent years, Boston is on the map with multiple acts making national attention: Bia, Cousin Stizz and Millyz. In the near future, Donald Grunge will be at the forefront of this uprising of Boston talent. The 11-track In Gleem I Trust LP includes production credits from fellow Boston-native, 10K Projects/Internet Money producer Isaiah Valmont. The album rollout began with the visual for "Money Talks," which is full of some intriguing scenes, and finished up with one of the first big achievements artists receive when succeeding in the music industry: a sold-out private listening event in Downtown Boston. 

"Making the album was like a burst of energy," Grunge said. "I started working on it when I was in the Internet Money house for the first time. I was so inspired and excited to make music there. I brought my vision to Daymian (producer) & he brought it to life.” 

Grunge had no problem receiving attention and respect from the start of his career. He gained the support of major industry players such as Quentin "Q" Cuff, longtime road manager and confidant of the late musical legend Mac Miller. The two connected and joined forces during the COVID-19 Pandemic, after Q listened to Grunge's demo track "Guitar Grunge" on SoundCloud. Grunge’s ability to catch important industry players’ attention and maintain relationships with them has played a huge role in him gaining national attention as someone to watch in the industry. Grunge continues to use his creative mind to develop an authentic sound, and listeners have nothing but excitement for his future.
