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've seen and done a lot... I excelled academically, but had extreme behavior problems. I was offered a chance to skip a grade in elementary, but my pops decided against it. I had another chance to skip a grade,, in 7th grade. This time it was a scholarship offer to I.M.S.A(Illinois Math and Science Academy). That time I declined. I didn't want to leave my family and friends. But any how , I started experiencing different socio economic environments around 15 years old when my mom moved us to the northwest suburbs of Chicago. I started realizing how much we got away wit in the hood...because them people was on my ass up there. Didn't matter, but they were. 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...
