Devin the Dude was born in Michigan but spent most of his childhood in Florida before moving to Texas with his family while in the fourth grade. He finally settled in Houston after graduating from high school, however, he discovered marijuana in the seventh grade and that would later become a major influence in his music. Before getting into the rap show business, Devin was interested in break-dancing and joined several groups. After finishing his high school, Devin met record producer Rob Quest, and together they created the duo called the Odd Squad.

Devin signed for Rap-A-Lot Records in 1992 as a member of the Odd Squad, and stayed with the label for the next 15 years. His debut solo album “The Dude” came out in 1998, and was produced by Scarface. It reached No.177 on the Billboard 200 chart while peaking at No. 28 on Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums. His second album “Just Tryin’ ta Live” (2002) had a bigger success, but remained underground even though it was produced by Dr. Dre and DJ Premier, and featured rappers such as Xzibit and Nas, among others. It reached No. 61 on the Billboard 200 and No. 11 on Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums. His net worth benefited accordingly.

Devin has released four more solo albums: “Landing Gear” (2008), “Suite 420” (2010), “Gotta Be Me” (2010), and “One for the Road” (2013), with sales also increasing his net worth.
