From the Gunzone to the Grind: Playmaker Puts East Knoxville to Work

Knoxville, Tennessee has long carried a gritty, soulful energy—and on the Eastside, often called The Gunzone, that spirit is alive and loud. Rising from this side of the city is Playmaker, an artist who’s been quietly sharpening his craft and making noise with intention. His latest release, the music video for “Work Work Work”, puts a spotlight not just on his grind, but on the city that shaped him.

Filmed by HPVisualz1, the video captures the raw texture of Knoxville—unfiltered streets, real moments, and a hunger you can feel through the screen. Playmaker’s wordplay is keen yet smooth, balancing street wisdom with confident delivery that hits hard without forcing the moment. “Work Work Work” isn’t just a song—it’s a statement. With visuals that match the pressure of his bars, Playmaker continues to prove that Knoxville’s Eastside isn’t just part of the story— it’s the foundation.
