With influences from artists like Nas, DMX, Scarface, and 8-Ball & MJG, Bigg A’s music reflects his experiences growing up poor with an abusive father and having to become the primary breadwinner to help make a better life for his siblings. To provide for himself and his family, the Nashville native turned to a life in the streets, but discovered that the potential outcome of the lifestyle was not worth the risk. He tells this story in his first single, “Elbows.” As he began to understand the trauma he endured, he vowed to be a better father to his own children and break the generational curse. Hear his reflection on how his childhood trauma and struggles with depression affect his life today on Season 1, Episode 3.
