Born Diondre Brown, February 27, 1990 in St. Paul Minnesota, he moved to Gary, IN when he was nearly 11 days old. He began playing around with the hip hop genre around age 11. He attended Westside High School where he was voted most talented his senior year for the exceptional songs he recorded and released. After high school, he began making notable appearances on the local scene with crowd moving open mic performances and a few popular music videos. He stated, "Transitioning from the status I had in high school to another artist in my city was similar to going from a big fish in a small pond to a small fish in the sea." He quickly learned that in order to separate himself from the plethora of local artist he needed to brand his ambition. He began to take proper procedures to make #SAMEHUSTLENEWMONEY more than just a cool saying but a copyrighted outlet for him musically as well as a growing movement. With a versatile style bridging the gap between savvy and street, this hungry artist is guaranteed to catch the attention of anyone who appreciates hip hop.
