This guy started off as a comedian, and went further than he or anyone ever expected. After experiencing viral success with the song “Ex Boyfriend,” he then launched a kick starter where he raised 120,000 dollars and that helped fund what would become his first album, that went number 1. After he went viral he stepped up his rap skills, and became a force to be reckoned with. He’s witty, a little silly, and lyrical, which makes for a ton of funny rap lines that often go over people’s heads. Stay on the lookout for this Pennsylvania native as time etches on.
