Who Is Dre'Quan Priest in GTA 6? Official Bio and Links
Edited by Arthur HofUpdated: Last verified:
Dre'Quan Priest is the music half of GTA 6's Vice City crew. Rockstar describes him as more of a hustler than a gangster, and his tagline is just the name of his label, with a pause in it: "Only Raw... Records".
Music was always the plan
Even when he was dealing on the streets to make ends meet, breaking into music was the goal. That is the whole first paragraph of his bio, and it separates him from most of the cast: the crime is a means, not an identity.
His own line about how he finds hits is the most practical thing in any of the eight bios: "Dancers are like my A&Rs. If the record's a hit, DJs gonna be spinnin' it." A strip club as a test audience is exactly where he has been working.
He signed Real Dimez, and outgrew the club
Dre'Quan's bio carries two of the links on the evidence board. The first is Boobie Ike: Boobie's bio calls Dre'Quan "the young aspiring music mogul" he partners with on Only Raw Records, and calls that label the thing Boobie is most invested in.
The second is Real Dimez. Now that he has signed the duo, Rockstar says, Dre'Quan's days of booking acts into Boobie's strip club might be numbered, as he sets his sights on the Vice City scene. One of his lines reads like a welcome speech to them: "You're with the label now."
So the chain runs Boobie → Dre'Quan → Real Dimez, with Boobie's money, Dre'Quan's ear and the duo's audience. Boobie's bio says the label still needs a hit. Real Dimez's says they are one hit away from fame. The two sides are waiting on the same song.
Where he sits in Leonida
Rockstar's bio ties his ambitions to the Vice City scene, so the board lists Vice City as his base. Like Boobie, he has no named link to Jason, Lucia or the Keys crew. How the label story crosses the leads' story is something Rockstar has not said.
Voice and role still unknown
No actor has confirmed the role, and Rockstar has not said what Dre'Quan does in missions. The game's music side is better documented than its characters: our soundtrack guide covers the confirmed radio stations and artists.
