Born and raised in Harvey Illinois to parents Nathan and Diane Brown I'm one of 8 children borne to them. It was always something going on, plus we grew up smack dead in the middle of the hood.

I ended up getting locked up my junior year, during SATs, that was SMACKING! FTR. But yea I got my G.E.D while I was in the county jail fighting my case. I was literally in the library every single week. It paid off. I was able to present the 6 elements of self defense. I MADE COPIES MYSELF, and gave them to my p.d and the state. I  could've beat the case but I was still young, ya kno, I wanted out so when they offered me a plea deal and said I could walk that very week, I took it, long story short. But while in that county jail I got closer to God and my affinity for rapping, as well...
