MC Chris G​

“While my post-college life has focused around building my family, Emceeing at NYX gives me the chance to continue singing, dancing, and entertaining to my heart’s content year after year.” 

A Baltimore native, Chris G has been emceeing for over a decade. Since middle school, he grew up singing, dancing, and entertaining- throughout high school he actively participated in choir & theatre, and in college he majored in Theater & Dance. His role  performing as part of an acapella group led him to sing in Japan, where he competed in the ICCAs (the competition you saw in Pitch Perfect), as well as perform for the late Nelson Mandela. 

Chris found his way to NYX as a dancer, thrilled that he was paid to party. One day an NYX emcee handed him the mic and he led the crowd in doing the Wobble- Chris discovered his love for leading crowds, and the rest was history!
