Bio

He was born in Algiers, New Orleans, and for most of his childhood he lived in a single parent household, including him and his older brother. At age 7 he was starting to involve himself into music. His mom used to sing to him as a child; and when asked about his favorite childhood moments he says "Every Sunday morning when his mother made breakfast and she would listen to q93 fm radio and listen to the Sunday Morning Slow Jam Segment . His mother had got into a relationship and the man was an immediate father figure in he and his brother's lives. Growing up in New Orleans he says its hard to do what you feel in your heart because of the lack of opportunities. Although he doesn't use it as an excuse, at the age of 9 his stepfather was gunned down in their home, Jokaa, his brother, and his mother were all held at gun point while inside their home. As he and his brother sat on the living room couch and watched his stepfather be assaulted. The men who invaded their house were looking for drugs and couldn't find it so they shot him, and he says " From then on it is what it is and I shouldn't be here so I am going to do all I can to make sure my family has to never experience anything like that again.
