I never had close connections with people and always had something bad happening in the family but I always had some music to listen to, no matter what you going through there’s probably a song to express what your feeling. When I came to Raleigh, NC is when I really got into crime and drugs I needed the money to support myself and the drugs numbed alot of built-up pain inside which then just lead me to start making my own music it started out just free-styling with friends into actually recording songs.
