Seven years prior, a clean-shaven Brown was finishing his degree in video and music business at Southwestern Adventist University just south of Fort Worth. He spent his nights exploring the music scene in Dallas, finding a home at the Bar of Soap open mic. Inspired, Brown started performing at open mics around Dallas, but he could ride the poetry scene only so far. Brown began to teach himself how to play the bass, evolving his art as he learned.
