The up-and-coming rapper initially wanted to chase down his dream of becoming a professional basketball player. Growing up, he would hit the gym after school to practice.
However, things didn't go exactly as planned for the rapper, and he had to let his NBA dreams go. Instead, his life put him back on the streets.
During an interview with Elevator Magazine, the rapper recalled how rap was something that helped him put his life on track. He added,
To be real with you, I'm not even going to lie [if it wasn't for rap] I'd be either locked up or even worse six-feet, but that's life and it's a good thing that I'm doing what I'm doing now.
He also told the outlet how he accidentally found out that he could spit out bars. His story began on a fall afternoon when he was out with his right-hand man, YJ.
