Gucci had grown up in a very tough environment in Bessemer, Alabama, before moving to East Atlanta, Georgia, with his mom. There was a lot of instability early in his life as Gucci’s dad was always absent, and the neighbourhood he grew up in was kind of surrounded by violence and also drugs. Despite these things, Gucci, a.k.a. Radric, had excelled academically and had a fondness for poetry, which helped him develop his lyrical knowledge.
