Today we’d like to introduce you to Finessegod Gene
Hi FinesseGod Gene, we’d love for you to start by introducing yourself.
FinesseGod Gene: My story starts in Detroit, where I was born and raised. I had to grow up fast—by the time I was 15, I was already on my own, navigating life’s ups and downs. At 17, I moved to Texas, and that’s where I really started hustling and figuring out who I was. I’ve been all over—Texas, Tennessee, Virginia, Georgia, even the Dominican Republic for a while. Every place taught me something different, and every experience helped me evolve.
I started recording music when I was 13, but it was always more than just a hobby. Music was therapeutic for me—it was my way of processing everything I’d been through. But it wasn’t my only focus. I’ve always been about making moves, whether it was running my own businesses like Coney Island restaurants or pursuing financial freedom in other ways. I’m not the type to rely on a 9-to-5. I’ve always been a go-getter, chasing my own path.
Now, I’m getting back into music after a long break, and it’s still the same for me—music is my therapy, my outlet. But I’m also tapping deeper into my spiritual side, focusing on balance and finding my true purpose. Everything I’ve been through has shaped me, and now I’m ready to share that with the world, both through my music and everything else I do.
We all face challenges, but looking back would you describe it as a relatively smooth road?
FinesseGod Gene: It has definitely not been a smooth road. Life has thrown many challenges my way, from struggling to make ends meet at a young age to navigating relationships that changed as I pursued my dreams. When you’re on the journey to find your purpose, you often encounter obstacles—people you thought would support you may not understand your path or vision, and that can be tough.
I’ve faced my share of ups and downs, whether it was dealing with the realities of street life or the pressures of running businesses. There were times when I felt isolated, questioning who I could trust and if my efforts would pay off. Spiritual battles have been a constant as I’ve tried to stay grounded and true to myself amidst the chaos.
But those struggles have shaped me. They taught me resilience and the importance of staying connected to my vision. Each challenge has been a lesson, pushing me closer to the balance and purpose I’m now actively pursuing in both my music and life.
Can you tell our readers more about what you do and what you think sets you apart from others?
FinesseGod Gene: As an artist and creative, my journey encompasses much more than just music. I specialize in forex and futures trading, a field that took me a considerable amount of time to master. It’s about understanding the real-world dynamics and seeing beyond what’s presented to us in the media. My spiritual connection allows me to tap into a deeper understanding of these markets and recognize opportunities that others might overlook.
In addition to trading, I’ve ventured into entrepreneurship, opening restaurants and running various businesses. I take pride in being able to create and manage these ventures, putting people in positions to succeed and making things happen. My ability to keep operations rolling and bringing ideas to life is one of my core strengths.
I’m also a brand creator and website designer. It’s not just about building a website; it’s about crafting a brand’s identity and making it resonate with the audience. I believe that how a brand presents itself is crucial to its success, and I strive to make every project I undertake visually compelling and strategically sound.
What I’m known for is this multifaceted approach—combining my skills in music, business, and branding. As for what I’m most proud of, I feel like that moment hasn’t come yet. I view my journey as a marathon; it’s important to stay balanced through the highs and lows. Celebrating a win can lead to disappointment during a loss, so I focus on the overall journey instead.
What sets me apart from others is my unique perspective and the way I think. My spiritual gifts guide my interpretation of the world around me, allowing me to navigate challenges with insight and creativity. I’m driven by a desire to do things differently and to push boundaries, both in my personal and professional life.
What has been the most important lesson you’ve learned along your journey?
FinesseGod Gene: The most important lesson I’ve learned along my journey is the significance of resilience and the power of belief—both in myself and in the greater plan of the universe. Life is full of challenges, and there were times when it felt like everything was against me. I learned that it’s crucial to keep pushing forward, even when the odds seem stacked.
Another key lesson is the importance of staying true to your vision, even when others may not understand or support it. There will always be naysayers and people who fall off along the way, but that doesn’t diminish your path. It’s about having the faith to continue pursuing your dreams and recognizing that everyone’s journey is different.
Additionally, I’ve come to realize that success isn’t just about the destination; it’s about the growth that happens along the way. Each obstacle is an opportunity to learn and evolve. So, I focus on the journey rather than just the end goal. Finding balance—spiritually, emotionally, and financially—has been essential. When you can maintain that balance, you can navigate life’s ups and downs with grace and clarity.
