Born August 23rd, 1985 in Minneapolis, Minnesota Jai Blizz became attatched to Hip Hop/ Rap music at a young age listening to various artists. Ironically not liking choir and music class in school very much, around 8 years old he bought his 1st tapes Dr. Dre The Chronic and E-40 The Mailman while older peers around him played artists such as NWA, Scarface, 8Ball and MJG. Jai Blizz's older step brother wrote music for him at the age of 10 just to play around with but soon after he began to write his own bars the same year. The first material eas never kept but at the age of 12 when Jai Blizz was staying in Nashville he had a few friends who rapped and it was from there he began to take music seriously and build his portfolio from there while listening to DMX 2 Pac and most No Limit artists. Between moving city to city and missing school in his early teens he wrote music everyday. From 6th to 8th grade he actually only was enrolled in school less than a year of his middle school years and he found himself running the streets often so the knowledge came to him 1st hand. At 13 years old he recorded his 1st song with some guys that brought him to the studio.At 15 he did his 1st performances in talent shows and other events but he never could advance too far in music due to a string of legal troubles from thefts to robberies. By the time when he did get back in school which was supposed to be his freshman year he spent most of his days in school writing music, and was only going to school because he was on probation. At the age of 16 he had wrote over 400 full original songs and was respected for his craft and recognized wherever he went for his talent. He actually began with a fast style but slowed it down eventually so he could focus on his lyrical content.
