Born June 24, 1992 in Jackson Memorial Hospital , Young Balli grew up with a strong passion for the art of Football. At a young age he had the pleasure of winning a national title with Charles Hadley Liberty City Warriors, which was also coached by infamous Miami rapper Uncle Luke. After graduating  from Miami Jackson Senior High School, he later attended Dean College in Franklin Massachusetts on a football scholarship. Torn between his love for the sport and his own personal hardships of making it in the NFL , he turned to music as an escape. Although music was always in the picture it became pivotal as the dream of playing football slowly faded.

Sitting in on personal studio sessions since a newborn baby with father, Rodin Francis Sr. also known as Uncle Balli, he naturally adapted to the essence and flow of the rap music culture.

Influences: He was majorly Influenced by the 80′s and 90′s Hip hop era which included controversial artists like 2Pac,  Nas, Notorious BIG & Jay-Z.

After losing his spot on his college football team and being forced to go back to the poverty-stricken streets of Liberty City  , music became his first priority. It was more than just flowing to a beat. Music paved the way and became a lane that he could enter to discuss everyday struggles of being a black youth. Music started to become the only way to express his words and speak on personal views , not just life, but all the waves that come along with growth. It was the great escape.

Recently signed to a  Independent record label “Straight Piracy Productions”. Young Balli plans on setting the tone and giving a fresh new flow to music.
