Born In 1988 In Fresno California Fashawn Grew Up In A Virtually Parentless Home. His Father Was Incarcerated While His Mom Was Focused On Feeding Her Drug Addiction - A Combination That Caused A Boy To Become A Man Quicker Than Most. Placed In A Group Home By Child Services At The Age Of 12 Fashawn Found Solace In Music And Began Writing Rhymes To Escape The Less Than Desirable Hand He Had Been Dealt So Early In Life. Eventually Taken In By His Uncle Fashawn Spent His Teenage Years Calling First & Shields Ave In Fresno California His Home. Here Is Where He Would Find Skating The Distractions Of The Streets And The Pursuance Of His Music Career To Be More Rewarding Than School. Yet He Had A Constant Thirst For Knowledge That Extended Beyond The Streets So He Became An Avid Reader With An Affinity Towards Non-Fiction And Motivational Books. In 2006 Fashawn Released His First Mixtape “Grizzly City”. Catching The Attention Of Fellow Fresno Emcee Planet Asia Fashawn Was Invited To Go On The Road With Him. Knowing This Was A Chance Of A Lifetime The Then 17-Year-Old Emcee Dropped Out Of School To Follow His Dreams And Has Never Looked Back. Since Then He’s Had The Honor Of Working With Two Of The Mid-West’s Premier DJs Mick Boogie And Terry Urban On The Orisue Clothing Sponsored “One Shot One Kill” Mixtape And With Hip-Hop Internet Heavyweights OnSmash.Com And NahRight.Com On His “Higher Learning” Mixtape. Both Efforts Garnered Him Nationwide Recognition.
