Due to the influence of his father, he came to like the classics of the 60's and 70's such as Paul McCartney (The Beatles) and Queen. Immediately after Michael Jackson died in elementary school, Michael Jackson became popular among the housing complex, and he became absorbed in dancing. He started attending dance school and started playing drums at the same time. In junior high school, he was seriously living his school life while playing with local bad kids. I was listening to Eminem and Soulja Boy, but at the same time I was addicted to pop music such as Justin Bieber. I started rap when my local childhood friend set up a freestyle battle during the spring break of the third year of junior high school who was watching the freestyle of Chinza Dopeness and the high school rap championship on YouTube, and from this time I got into the world of Hip-Hop.
