To everyone’s amazement, Lowry ended up winning the contest after his buddies put the word out on Facebook for people to vote for him. Having said that, it wasn’t until he entered a small talent competition with a few friends- initially as part of a joke, that he first embarked on a rap journey.
To pass the time, he often listened to instrumentals in his car, which he later started to rap to. Because of this, his only option was to drive to school everyday- despite it being a one hour communte.
Unlike many rappers who began performing in their teens, it wasn’t until he had already graduated from high school that he first got into hip hop- “accidentally.” Following his graduation, he went to college but was unable to afford the living expenses necessary for staying on campus.
