Tell It [Prod. Navé Monjo]

Andrew Moorman aka AMO98 was born in San Francisco. The product of Caribbean and European parents. AMO moved to Maryland with parents and two other siblings. At a young age AMO was diagnosed with ADHD and dyslexia. The side affects from the medication made him suicidal, aggressive and at times a bit schizophrenic. AMO went to private schools growing up but he soon realized his small hometown was racist. He was called a “nigger” everyday at school. He got into a lot of fights at school and was eventually kicked out. He then went to public schools where he befriended some interesting people. “Most my friends were either in the hood and broke or  hustling. There were some children who were rich living with daddy’s money going golfing and there was kids who were broke.
“ I admit I’ve experienced both sides. I was lucky and did extravagant things but every time I’d visit cousins or homies we would be playing with guns, dealing drugs or doing gang sh*t” Growing up he felt like the black sheep of the family and often got into trouble for attention. 

AMO began writing poetry at age 12 and music a year later. He listened to Tupac, NWA, Dub C, and lots of other West Coast legends. He also enjoyed East Coast artists Jay Z, Busta Rhymes and Eminem. 

Although he listened to many AMO lists Kendrick Lamar as his biggest influence. 
“when I was young he dropped mixtapes and I fell in love with the way he bends words and can paint a picture lyrically” 

At the young age of 16 AMO decided he wanted to make records. The rest is history.
