Double A

Double A – Bio and Accolades

Aaron Dejuan Carter a.k.a. “Double A” was born on October 23, 1986 in Kansas City, MO. As a youth, Aaron experienced a somewhat nomadic lifestyle constantly moving between Houston, Dallas, and Kansas City. Growing up like many inner city kids, without a father figure at home, a young Aaron allowed the streets to guide him through his youth. With that, father-son relationship to the streets it was only a matter of time before the street-life seemed to be the option of finding financial stability. On October 23, 2001, he received a Karaoke Machine for his 15th birthday, that is when he began honing his skills, and recording his mixtapes on cassette tapes and have Das Mobster convert them to C.D.

Although these mixtapes had bad sound quality, his lyrics and hustle created a buzz for Double A. With his growing ‘hood buzz, he got together with childhood friend Lil Pooh, and Das Mobster to start Nauf Side Team (commonly referred to as N.S.T.). They started pushing independent mixtapes through various Dallas county high schools and
became instant block stars.

Double A’s rap career changed for the better his junior year (2004) in high school, when he met Jerome a.k.a. “J Staccs” at the Super Bowl in Houston. Double A states “I remember I met up with him and spit like 50 bars to him and he said I was wack and put in Jay-Z’s album The Blueprint, and that opened my eyes and I realized I had to step my game up.” J Staccs set up a studio session with Double A, he was so impressed with Dub’s work ethic and lyrical ability, he and co-owner Young Fava made him apart of
Real Money Entertainment. Tragedy hit a couple years later when J Staccs was gunned down, Double A felt it was left to him to carry on J Staccs vision, saying “When I heard he was dead it hurt a lot and it was only through music I made him apart of me and it really helped me through that situation.”

As a growing business man, Double A has drafted an elite management team. The new "Team Double A," has made the necessary strides to increase the anticipation of his forthcoming album, "Gods Gift." As an AllHipHop.Com “Breeding Ground’s” artist, Double A has not only made his presence felt on the national stage, but also through his constant show of work ethic and endurance in his many mixtapes and features. “Gods Gift” will be just that, the capturing of a moment that has been long worked for, and
a moment in which his fans will never forget.
