Jahzeel was born on May 20th 1984 in Crown Heights, Brooklyn New York, And lived until he was five years old. Then his family moved to south in Saint Petersburg Florida, in -between two hoods called Child Park and Gulf Port. Jahzeel was always into writing. He wrote his first short story around 6 or 7 years old. Since little he was thinking older then most of his peers. His parents taughtt him different traditions then most american kids. Both of his parents were born in different countries. Jah's father was born and raised most of his life in Kingston, Jamaica and moved to New York City in his mid years. Jahzeel's mother, was born in Bonao, Dominican Republic but came to America in her teen years. When jahzeel was growing up he never considered hiself Jamaican even tho it was in his blood line and he still loved his Jamaican people. The only Jamaican culture his father taught was the music. Jahzeel wasn't afraid of telling people he was Jamaican, he told everyone he was Dominican instead. Jahzeel's mother taught him everything bout the dominican culture even his grand parents,aunt's and uncle’s.. Especially about how the music was created and the native dances. He didnt learn the spanish, but still understood influent. Making Jahzeel's future even harder and even lost in life. Jahzeel is the middle child to his father, but the first born to his mother. Jahzeel has an older sister but barely even knows her and has a younger brother that was around him most of his life. Around 8ys jahzeel's parents were arguementative and had young jahzeel in his room listening to music or always outside. Introducing jahzeel to the world of music and street life, creating a start of his life.. Around 10 to 11 his parents separated making his world crumble right in front of his eyes. At age 12 jahzeel was gainging more passion for the music listening to old school 60's, 70's, and 80's music all the time but, was falling as a victim of the street life too. At age 12 jahzeel got locked up for the first time in his life for stealing. At that time jahzeel started to get into poetry and reading stories from Shakesspear, Homer, Edger Allen Poe, R.L. Stein etc.! At the same time jahzeel was still falling deeply in the street life hanging around with gang members and drug dealers. At the age 14 Jahzeel was in high school learning how to play the saxophone still hanging on the street so much that he barely even went to school but only to his music class. Jahzeel's father got frustrated and kicked him out of the house. Where he began sleeping at the park at night and hustling during the day time just to survive but jahzeel still managed to go to music class. He stood on the streets for 6 months straight during that time jahzeel also had the cops after him for many crimes he commited while living on the streets. Until his father shipped him off to Dallas Texas to live with his mother. Making his life destroy deeper killing him slowly inside, because he had to leave his brother behind. At the age of 15 Jahzeel was living now in Dallas TX with the mindset of streetlife with no hope. Around 16 jahzeel was deeply into hip-hop writing his first song in summer school. He started to grow a passion for music again. Around fall to winter jahzeel met some people in Dallas that were rapping making his first rap group called youngstaz. The members were Smokey, Loc, and Baby G. at that time the group became more like the local crew, adding more members but only four where rapping including jahzeel. They Started off with nothing but a karaoke machine that jahzeel received on his birthday. Youngstas started to write songs as a group, at the same time they were getting into more trouble putting jahzeel back into the streets. Thats when he was getting into a lot of fights, everyday and weeks with other people from his school even on the streets. Knocking young jahzeel's focus off the music. Trying his best, to stay on the right path of his music career, by battling other M.C's. in the local area's, with one of his old friend Baby G. To be continued.............
