Originally from Edwards, Mississippi, Smith was exposed to creating music at an early age.
After moving to Florida, Smith began teaching himself how to make beats, using YouTube for guidance, during his high school career.
He took a break from music until the end of his freshman year at FAMU.
Smith signed with Tallahassee-based Two-Six management this fall. After joining this company, he created B-ONE (it stands for beware of negative energy), where he is the label’s founder, CEO as well as a recording artist.
