Early Life and Career
Born in Salt Lake City, Utah, Dave lived in Davenport, Iowa, since the age of three before finally moving to Los Angeles, California, where he currently resides. His move to California was mainly influenced by his desire to make it big in the rap scene.
During an interview on No Jumper, Dave revealed that he had a pretty rough upbringing, revealing that growing up in Iowa was especially challenging because of the rampant drug use and unemployment rates in the area. Telling more about his crazy upbringing, Dave revealed that he used to live in shelters and hotel rooms most of the time before his mother was finally able to get them a place to stay. When asked about his father, Dave revealed that he passed away back in 2008, something that brought about a lot of change in his life. Recounting his time staying at a Domestic Violence Shelter, he expressed how they were so broke that they couldn’t afford simple Chucky Cheese meals (times were really tough for him, NGL)
Educational Background
Regarding his educational background, Dave revealed that he started off in high school but was later recommended to enroll at an alternative school, where he ended up going into drugs. He ended up checking out of school in 9th grade and engaged in a lot of vices while in school.
Musical Career
Dave has been all over the internet in the past few days, and it has been for various reasons. At first impression, anyone would assume that he isn’t a rapper, but once you get to listening to his music, then it all makes sense. He revealed that his journey with rap started when he was quite young. The first CD he ever bought was The Carter III by Lil Wayne, which he listened to every day. Despite garnering a lot of inspiration from rappers such as Eminem, Kanye West, and Future, Dave revealed that it was Lil Bibby and G Herbo who really made him want to get into rap. (FYI Lil Bibby was his favorite rapper.)
Now, his music can be described as raw, unrelenting, and uncompromising melodic rap, which has a lot of shock value in the lyrics. His On The Radar Freestyle has especially gone viral with lyrics featuring emerging issues in the world, which most people would prefer to stay away from even mentioning on their songs. He currently has over 205,000 monthly listeners on Spotify and millions of streams on his tracks. His most famous songs include ‘The Cup’, ‘CRYING IN THE KITCHEN’, ’10 PERCS’, ‘Talking To The Sun’, ‘Bundle of Sticks’, ‘Purple Stuff’, ‘Solar Sunday’, ‘Clap For Me’, and ‘Another Cigarette’.
