Sage the Gemini (born Dominic Wynn Woods[1][2] on June 20, 1992)[3] is an American rapper, songwriter, and record producer from Fairfield, California. He is a member of California's The HBK Gang. He is known for his single "Gas Pedal" featuring Iamsu!, produced by Sage the Gemini. "Gas Pedal" peaked at number 29 on the Billboard Hot 100, making it Sage's first top 40 hit; it also reached number six on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs and number four on the Hot Rap Songs charts in 2013.[4] Sage's song "Red Nose", which he produced himself, peaked at number 54 on the Hot 100 and at number 12 on the Hot R&B Hip-Hop Songs. Both songs were taken from his debut EP Gas Pedal, which peaked at number 29 on the R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart.[5] He signed to Republic Records in August 2013.[6] His debut studio album Remember Me was released on March 25, 2014. He has released the singles "Guantanamera" and "Good Thing" in May 2015 from his album Bachelor Party, planned for release in 2016.

Early life

Sage the Gemini was born in either Fairfield, California,[3] or San Francisco, California.[1] He started recording at the age of eleven with his brother after he bought a microphone from Gordon's Music and Sound shop in Fairfield, California. The first track he recorded, at 14, was titled "Made In China".[7] Woods took the name Sage the Gemini due to the color of his eyes and his zodiac sign.[8][9]

Musical career

In 2008, Sage released his first single, "You Should Know" on MySpace. It became a viral hit, generating over three million views worldwide. He then joined Black Money Music Group. Being close friends with rapper Iamsu!, he also joined The HBK Gang.[8][9] Sage then released the singles "Red Nose" and "Gas Pedal" in March 2013. These singles immediately became hits and gained a lot of airplay, which attracted Republic Records who signed a deal with him in August 2013. The Recording Industry Association of America certified "Red Nose" Gold and "Gas Pedal" Platinum.[10] On March 25, 2014 Sage released his debut studio album Remember Me.[11][12]
