Kid Lucas was born in France to a French mother and a Senegalese father. He eventually moved to Austin, Texas when he was 8 years old. Two years later, he moved to Detroit, where he spent the majority of high adolescence.

When he graduated from high school, he and his parents moved to San Francisco. Two months later, he decided he wanted to work on music full-time. He started traveling with people across different states and wound up in Las Vegas.

Growing up, he used to visit France every summer.

However, once he started focusing on his music, his time there has been limited.

With regards to academics, he admits to not doing well in school as early as the fourth grade; he considered it his "main struggle."

He went to an international school when he was living in Austin, where he learned English, Spanish, and French. When he was in Detroit, he did not do well in school, as he feels like he could not adapt to a school's learning environment; he recalls getting suspended numerous times, but not due to fighting.
