Early life

Bieber was born on March 1, 1994, in London, Ontario[13] and was raised in Stratford, Ontario. Bieber's mother, Pattie Mallette, was 18 years old when she became pregnant with her son. Mallette, who worked a series of low-paying office jobs, raised Bieber as a single mother in low-income housing. Bieber maintains contact with his father, Jeremy Bieber, who married another woman and had two children.[14][15] Bieber's paternal great-grandfather was a German immigrant to Canada.[16]

During his childhood, Bieber was interested in hockey, soccer, and chess; he often kept his musical aspirations to himself.[14] As he grew up, Bieber taught himself to play the piano, drums, guitar, and trumpet.[17][18] In early 2007, when he was twelve, Bieber sang Ne-Yo's "So Sick" for a local singing competition in Stratford and placed second.[5][18] Mallette posted a video of the performance on YouTube for their family and friends to see. She continued to upload videos of Bieber singing covers of various R&B songs, and Bieber's popularity on the site grew.[10] Career 2008–09: Discovery and My World

While searching for videos of a different singer, Scooter Braun, a former marketing executive of So So Def, clicked on one of Bieber's 2007 videos by accident.[14] Impressed, Braun tracked down the theater Bieber was performing in, located Bieber's school, and finally contacted Mallette. Mallette was reluctant because of Braun's Jewish religion; she remembered praying, "God, I gave him to you. You could send me a Christian man, a Christian label! ... you don’t want this Jewish kid to be Justin’s man, do you?”[14] However, after praying with her church elders and receiving their encouragement, she permitted Braun to fly Bieber, then 13,[10] to Atlanta, Georgia, to record demo tapes.[14] A week after arriving, Bieber sang for R&B singer/songwriter Usher.[19] Bieber was soon signed to Raymond Braun Media Group (RBMG), a joint venture between Braun and Usher.[9] Justin Timberlake was also reportedly in the running to sign Bieber, but lost the bidding war to Usher.[9][20] Usher then arranged an audition with Antonio L.A. Reid of Island Def Jam Music Group, who signed Bieber to Island Records in October 2008 (resulting in a joint venture between RBMG and Island Records).[5][9][10] At that point, Bieber and his mother moved to Atlanta temporarily, also the home of Usher and Braun, to record and get counseling from Braun.[9] Braun became Bieber's manager.[10] Bieber in September 2009 at the Nintendo World Store

Who is said to be his major influence, He had not been brought under the wing of rap until he had been said "writing deep rhymes that hurt me, and stained my past." He started also rapping and freestyling in frot of Hamilton Senior High School were he attends with his friend "Shere Khan". RodiMuS at the time had gone under many stage names during the time of his crafting of style as well as technique.

During this time he also knew close friends he had been trying to bring into the rap game FX, EJ, and Clockworks(Now known as Shere Khan to RodiMuS). He had also been influenced by another big artist at the time who was the New York based rapper Nas from his 2008 track "Hero" from the Untitled album. At this time his vocabulary had been very resourceful but still hidden, since he had been known for not having a big interest on freestyle skills.

Ara & Arapokolips

These two names had been known as a dark side for RodiMuS while he was still finding his way and structuring a rap style with a name, lyrics, flow, technique, and originality that made him more potent to the many people that heard him. While gaining the freestyle abilities with Shere Khan he had been learning and adapting to the culture of Hip Hop, starting from the underground emcees i.e, MF Doom, and Atmosphere. RodiMuS also starting learning the rap battle scheme and what it actually took to become a great and talented rap battler. Under the name of Arapokolips, RodiMuS' style and technique started breaking his own charts and barrers with raps he had wrote. "I believe Evolvementating Tators was the first rap of mine I actually memorized, i always had a favorite part of the song" "Stuck in no translation/Evolvementating a dictation/Reading Ezekiels proclomation/ This is vile friend of blacks, uncle ruckus no relations, my two tablets from god temptation"-Evolvementating Tators

Pinhead Jerry & Black Mask Rebel

He had started to become known from his rhyme skills delivery and how long he could freestyle.

RodiMuS

"Now RodiMuS came into affect when I was on the internet looking up Transformers, the old school one's and I had came across Rodimus Prime, so I obviously liked his first name since he had been an underdog and took that name as well as an icon for it." -RodiMuS During this time of his peeking era he had been very known at his school for rap skills and still is known.
