The story

DaeJohn Roddy, known as B Yungn, was born and raised in Shreveport, Louisiana, on West 75th and Linwood. He's been making music since he was 8. It started as something fun to do with friends, then a MacBook and BandLab in a small closet, then the studio. His barber was the first to believe in him and took him to his first session.

Broken homes. Lost family. Music was always the therapy.

Music runs in the family. His pops walked around the house freestyling every day, and his mom, his biggest supporter, was a drum major. Now, fully independent, he's done features with big local names and shows in about 10 states, chasing the Billboard Hot 100 and a name that lasts for generations. He makes music to explain his pain and be an outlet for anyone going through the same thing, so nobody has to carry their scars alone.

Inspired by NoCap, Michael Jackson, 50 Cent, NBA YoungBoy, Kevin Gates, and his pops.
