He never met his father, who ended up becoming a drug addict. For many situations he started to get involved with the rap music. And he turn to a life of crime and he get involved in a gangs world. 

At the age of 16 he started to take drugs, getting many problems. He dealt drugs. Also he was arrested for drugs possession.

He has a emptiness that nothing could fill up, the drugs, the alcohol, the parties, the womens just let him more empty

At the age of 17 he convinced that he was at a dead end, so he took the decision to go to the church for the influence of her grandmother, and he started to go to a bible study where he met her wife.

Finally at the age of 19 he desire to gave his life to God and live for him.
