Band/artist history

In high school, rapping was sidelined due to Pookie roll as team captian of the football and basketball team and 4.0 honor student GPA. After turning down a division III scholarship, he was accepted to UNC-Charlotte and attempted to walk on to the b-ball team. Around this time he linked up with a fellow student and began rapping under the name Pookie wit tha Uzi. Around the time Kanye West dropped his debut College Dropout, Pookie did the samd and dropped out. Two months into what would have been his junior year he was arrested for a range of drug and weapon charges nad sentenced to a year in prison. As an inmate at Rowan County Correctional in Salisbury, NC he met D Boy of BTR(Bigger Than Rap). Upon, release, D boy took Uzi to Gastonia and the rest is history.
