Education and early life

Kay was raised alongside his brother and sister in The Bronx, by their father who’s a factory worker, and mother who’s a registered nurse; not a lot else has been shared about Kay’s family, because he respects their privacy.

Kay wrote his first songs while attending a local high school, and often performed for his peers who encouraged him to pursue a career as a rapper; he’s revealed that he was raised in a ‘dangerous area’, and that music helped keep him away from crime.

Kay matriculated in 2021, and then chose to focus on music rather than to pursue a college degree.
