William Jaime Price, AKA J BIGGS, was born in St.Louis, Missouri, in 1978, the same year as hip-hop. J Biggs was raised a child of the hip-hop culture. First performing at the age of six, J Biggs lit the audience at St. Francis Xavier reciting his poem on the talent show stage. J Biggs later rocked the football fields of Matthews-Dickey Boys Club in North St. Louis' Penrose Park when he introduced the community to the lyricist he'd later become.
