Early life

At the age of nine, D'Orso watched the music video for "Stronger" by Kanye West, which inspired him to become a rapper. In an interview with Vanity Fair, D'Orso revealed that he was also motivated to ask his uncle to give him a CD "with all the rap songs of the moment". The CD featured artists such as Sean Paul, Jay-Z, and Lil Wayne. D'Orso began writing his first lyrics in 2011, at the age of 13.
