White 's father was in prison at the time of his birth, and his mother was left to raise him as a single parent. White grew up in Canton though he moved to Columbus, Ohio, several times. White 's interest in music began when his mother played Ashanti, Beyoncé, Tupac, and Nas when White was growing up and it led to him later listening to artists such as T - Pain, KISS, Gucci Mane, Marilyn Manson and Lil Wayne.

White was also an affiliate of the Bloods street gang, and attended high school in Canton where he achieved a 4.0 GPA, describing himself during high school as a `` loner '' who was `` always popular ''. Following his graduation, White moved to Atlanta, where he met rapper Lil Wop and was eventually offered a deal with a record label. Career Lil Wop helped White get started with a professional recording studio, where he began working with Lil Wop together with Kodie Shane and recorded three projects titled Awakening My Inner Beast, Beast Mode and Rock the World Trippie.
