Despite how many people veiw St Louis, Missouris as just country rappers. Marques "Woota Yes" Stewart has proven them wrong, with a lyrical tornado like no other . A typical child of the city, XOÃââ„s upbringing wasnt too harsh. His mother, Stephanie, had him attend a school in the not so rough parts of St. Louis county where he lived. But all of Woota's freetime and most of the school time was spent in the streets chasing a dream of becoming a millionaire by any means necessary. He spent his early childhood in different places around the world, because his dad was a marine. When he was 12 or 13 his father and mother split and he stayed with his mother in St.louis, Missouri, which changed his whole life. He first started writing rhymes when he was about 14, just for the hell of it he says. "I aint have nothin to rap bout forreal except bs," Woota recalls. Fascinated by music that reflected his upbringing, he started listening to many different rappers, including Biggie, 2Pac, Cash Money, and many more. Woota Yes started off a good student all the way until he got into middle school. He began trying to be tough and get into altercations with students and hanging with the "dope boys". He was always either kicked out or just didn't attend school. "Not like I think that school was important but to me money was just way more important. And i hate following rules, i make my own." He ran the streets with his click Black Mobb and S.O.B. most of the time. When he was about 19 he moved with his father in Virginia to get out of trouble. He got into Job Corps, Jan. 08, 2008 and got kicked out Dec. 12, 2008. "I feel like i waisted a year of my life in there. I mean i met some cool **** people in there though, but i guess its back to what i know." So now he's back to rappin and back to what he call's "The Savage Life." Only difference is now he's taking his rap career more serious. He's now looking for a label and a manager to get his career taking off. But he says "if i don't find what im looking for then im going to do my own thing. Manage myself, all that, and if it comes to that, the world is in for a hell of a lot of trouble."
