O.T, better known as (Shodd Brunson) was born and raised on the streets of Overtown in Miami, Florida O.T was a child of seven while growing up he tried to overcome obstacles that many kids around his age could not face Struggling to get by a good life without having his father's presence O.T was known as the head hold of his house
When he entered the fifth grade, his freestyling talent had become known to the peers that were around him. Being around that young age playing sports such as football and basketball were his first and only priority Yet,little did people know his true prodigy was yet to show Between the ages 12-13 O.T began to pursue his real passion, which was rapping Watching the various legendary hip hop and R&B artist for instance Marvin Gaye, the Commendors, Run DMC, 2Pac, Biggie, Bone-thugz& harmony, Ray Charles, and Jay-Z and T.I gave O.T the confidence and assurance in entering the business
At age sixteen, he stepped into the lab with no experience or knowledge on how the studio functioned As he watched older local artist he gained more experience on how to record O.T was a rookie on the mic, but a lyrical veteran When it came to writing songs his songs were based on life experiences and street knowledge With a better enrichment of the business, a several of his friends affiliated a group called "City Boy Clique" The group had performed in various shows, such as talents shows, and local clubs
Meanwhile, O.T did not feel a kinship with working in a group for justified reasons On that note, at age eighteen he recorded his first solo song "My Last Words" containing words that associated with the last time being a seventeen year old This song was basically about teens who had finally reached the adult stage and being seventeen was over with Also listeners to this song felt connected because of the words being described Pushing and promoting mix tapes as chances came by he became well known in Miami
Furthermore, when negative, unconstructive ideas or thoughts came his way from people he gained more motivation and inspiration which led to his creative and artistic lyrical rhymes In a city where not too many local artists are recognized and are mostly hated upon this became a, defying challenge for O.T With no trust or reliance on anyone O.T face up on working with a record label called "Get Money Records", Where they took him in and made him feel welcomed and well situated The rest is history in the making
