As a child, Carter, was interested in R&B and old school rap. He started to take music more seriously after he graduated from Westside High school and went to college at The Art Institute. Carter's roommate was into making beats as well. At first, Carter wanted to engineer and record artists, but after seeing his roommate's work, he was inspired to produce. [2]
In 2011, Carter dropped out of college and started to engineer and record for people, but he wasn't making the kind of money that he wanted to. With no other job, he started to sell his beats. His cousin Yung Jonez used to criticize his music. Just to impress his cousin, Carter kept trying to make his beats sounds better. As Yung Carter's beats started to improve, Yung Jonez started to like his music. They developed a musical chemistry with each other. [2]
