Paul Douglas was born Paul Douglas on October 11, 1985 in Hollywood, California. He would be raised however in Compton by his aunt who he also called mom.  His time with his aunt would be short lived, and by the age of seven he was already in the system and in his first group home. While in the group home he liked to keep to him, but always had music within him.  He would spend time writing and singing songs about his birth parents. This would become his way to cope with the outside world when he would be feeling down.  Paul never took the singing seriously until 1997 when he lost his great-grandmother, and it was at that point he decided to make a commitment to singing in honor of her memory.

After moving all over the state of California from one group home to another he ended up in Riverside at the age of 17.
