Early life

[edit]

Brooks was born in Oakland, California, United States, and grew up in the Fillmore District of San Francisco since the age of three.[3] He attended George Washington High School.[4]

Career

[edit]

Brooks made his first rap appearance as an opening act for 2Pac and Digital Underground at the age of 12. He recorded his first album at 15 years old.[5] In addition to a solo career, Brooks is also a member of the San Francisco rap group Get Low Playaz[6] with JT The Bigga Figga, D-Moe, and Seff Tha Gaffla.[7] One of Brooks' most notable tracks is "Shock the Party", which samples Whodini's "One Love".[8] The video for "Shock the Party" was filmed in the Fillmore district of San Francisco in the now-defunct Buena Vista Plaza East public housing towers, commonly referred to as OC (Outta Control) Housing Projects.[9]
