July 16, 1991, Celli was born in Frankfurt, Germany. His mom was single deployed SFC Army From Georgia. He was a partially single child because his brother was always going back and forth between his mother's house and his father's house.

After he was born in Germany he came back to the states, first in California then settling in Augusta, Georgia with his mom:

Growing up was hard, being a single mother of two growing boys mom was always working or deployed. When mom was deployed he had to stay with their aunt in a low-income rural area of Augusta, Georgia. His mom did the best she could to keep peace in the home and raise two young men but for the most part, Celli had to grow up more self-reliant. Before 3rd grade, Celli and his mom moved to Kentucky because his mom had to relocate as per the request of the U.S. Army. If you asked his teachers Celli was very intelligent but didn’t seem to take school very seriously. Celli loved to socialize and his classmates thought he was funny laughing with them and for some time laughing at him. Celli was tall and skinny and kids said he had a head too big for his body. But kids didn’t razz Celli for long as he quickly got a reputation for roasting is classmates on site if they would give him any stress. In the middle of 8th grade, Celli and his mom moved to El Paso, Texas because The U.S. Army had requested she change duty stations. Freshman year, Celli started playing basketball and football for Chapin High School’s Freshman team the Huskies. Basketball and Football were the only part of school that wasn’t boring for Celli. Celli got along just fine socially in high school, he wasn’t Mr. Popular but he had a group of friends who he would hang out outside of school playing basketball with and roasting each other in the name of fun. Sophomore year he had to say goodbye to his friends again as him and his mom moved to Hawaii. Celli definitely liked living in Hawaii, the kids at his new school didn’t make a big deal out of seeing a new face. It was hard at first because again he was in a school with no friends but because Celli joined the basketball team he had found a few friends pretty quickly. Celli also joined the football team but ended up quitting because he made a friend who had a set of technique turntables at his house and Celli was very interested in learning to DJ. Celli got so into DJing that he even started ditching classes to go to his buddy’s house so he could get more time in on the tables. This ended up being a pattern throughout the last years of High School. He made sure to keep his grades up but he made sure he could get any time possible with those turntables and at a new hangout spot at a local recording studio he was welcomed to in his Junior year of high school. At the studio, Celli started producing and recording his own beats and vocals making countless tracks to get more comfortable with himself as an artist. Unfortunately, the studio shut down and Celli had no outlet for his new found passion. When Celli was 16 he decided to move out of his house with his mom. She would constantly be giving him grief for coming home so late and missing school so Celli was determined to continue doing what he thought was best and so he moved into another house with his best friend at the time. A year before Celli was set to graduate high school Celli’s mom moved away from Hawaii to Tacoma, Washington again at the request of the U.S. Army. This left Celli with no other option but to get by on his own. Celli graduated high school from Moana Lua High School 2010 and from there Celli joined the U.S. Army for 3 years. Celli did not enjoy his time, stationed in Fort Irwin Celli didn’t get along with the commanding officers. He tried to get along and fall in line but he always seemed to but heads with his commanding officers. The day Celli got out the ARMY he knew he wanted to pursue a career in music, he had a few options go to Hawaii, go to LA, go to Florida. He didn’t go to Hawaii because he decided it was too small and it would be hard for an artist to get by with such a tight net population, he decided not to go to Florida because he felt like he had had enough of the east coast all of his life and Los Angeles was someplace he had never been but he knew he would have great opportunities present themselves if he did go. So at the age of 21, he arrived in Los Angeles. He didn’t know anyone, he had no connections and had no place to stay. Thankfully Celli was used to this situation from going up a GI kid. Celli soon got into the club scene and started making connections. He was able to meet people who knew more people, people who could give Celli opportunities. Celli started getting himself put together with a car a nice apartment. This is when Celli finally was able to get back into the studio recording music and vocals. Celli realized that hosting club events was a great way to network and get in with his peers and Celli did this well.

Now Celli is currently working on releasing a few singles and eventually, he will be working on releasing his first full album. He is also planning on releasing some music videos to accompany his new songs. For years his music has been much anticipated, he’s been mastering his craft since his days in High School and In 2018 he will start showing the world what he has been working on.
