Smoking a blunt

Bourne went to school for graphic design for a year before getting in trouble and suspended; he eventually dropped out.

He spent some time at his grandparents' place smoking weed and briefly worked at a Walmart and Target while living with his father in South Carolina.

His uncle encouraged him to go for school for music and Bourne went the SAE Institute in Atlanta to study sound engineering. He earned his certificate in nine months. A major reason why Bourne chose to relocate to Atlanta was due to the amount of rappers and producers who were blowing up in the city at the time.

While in school, he met DJ Burn One who would take Bourne under his wing in the studio.

Some of his earlier worked contained samples of Willie Hutch and Curtis Mayfield.

When his uncle advised him about the high clearance fees for using the samples, Bourne began use instruments in the studio while working with DJ Burn One.

After graduating school, the studio where Bourne worked with DJ Burn One at hired him as a full-time engineer.

He would later work for Epic Records as a sound engineer for a year and worked across a wide range of music genres. He left Epic in order to focus on his own career.
