By the age of sixteen he accepted Jesus in his heart, kept going to church but still was drinking, getting high, doing secular music and clubbing all the time because of the influence in his neighborhood. He was arrested and spends a couple days in Juvenile and realized he needed to make some changes. He started the group Shouty angels and that’s how he receives the name Mr. Shouty because he was so hyped and full of energy.
