From Hood Life to Viral Rap Star: Spanian
Update:
18 days after this video was originally published, Spanian went on a homophobic rant on Instagram comparing the Pride movement with paedophilia, and was subsequently dropped by his label and management company. The following video was filmed and edited prior to Spanian’s hateful and homophobic comments, which VICE strongly condemns.
@Spanian led a life of crime in the hoods until he discovered rap music in prison. He was put in juvenile detention at the age of 14, shot up heroin around the age of 16, and was in maximum security prison by the time he was 18 years old.
He continued with a life of crime until 2017. This was a turning point for him in prison, where he discovered a new passion in life through rap music. Now, Spanian has found unexpected fame producing YouTube videos and rap music inspired by his former criminal life.
