Raised in Baton Rouge, little is known about his life before he became an internet sensation. He launched his career as a comedian under the name Mighty Mike, and started a Vine account under the name girlhefunny, and thanks to his extremely funny videos garnered attention, which he transferred to Instagram, and in no time became an internet sensation.
Drawn to rap and the hip-hop scene, he decided to use his newfound fame to launch a career as a rapper; looking up to 21 Savage, as he liked his dressing style and music, so he assumed the name 22 Savage. He has released several songs on his SoundCloud, including “Jumpin’”, which immediately became a hit. He then managed to reach out to several producers and other musicians, and his music was made available on YouTube. Some of his most popular releases include songs “Ain’t No 21”, which now has more than seven million views, and “Jumpin’”, which launched him to stardom in the first place, and it has more than 4.4 million views on YouTube, which really established his net worth.

Later, 22 Savage changed the name to Young 22, and has continued to delight and amuse the public with his new songs, and is extensively working on his debut full-length release.
Regarding his personal life, reports connected him with Kylie Jenner, but it turned out to be a rumor.
