A couple years later I learn how to write in the first grade and my next door neighbor who was much older than me always rapped around me with his friends, so one day I went over with a notebook and pencil and I asked him to teach me how to write lyrics and from then I will dab here and there through out the years growing up recording on radio’s with built in microphones and a karaoke machine which i made mixtapes with. 13 years old i got my first summer job brought myself a studio microphone and from then i been making music
