Lil Dicky grew up upper middle class in the northern end of Philly. He attended the University of Richmond got his hands on his degree and then scored a cushy job as an account manager at an advertising agency. But bored of the 9-5 he dreamt of becoming an actor / comedian and first stumbled upon rap as a means to entertain. Eventually he realized that he was actually better than just a joke and fell in love with the art form. For two years he stockpiled songs and videos so he could build up a proper fan base, quit his job and become the worlds most respected self depricatingjewish rapper and to change the game.
