BiG HEATH
The 20 year old originating from Cambridge, was born to be a entertainer from a young age. Suffering heavily from a speech impediment, it made it very hard for HEATH to speak and make friends, and inevitably led to extreme bullying. It wasn't until BiG first found rap, in the car with his Mum on the way to a speech therapy class, when Kanye Wests "Jesus Walks" came on the radio that his mother noticed he could rap the whole song without stuttering. Without their parents knowledge, his brother had been showing HEATH his favourite rap albums, and had learnt that HEATH could rap along without stuttering. It wasn't until HEATH heard Kanye West's "College Dropout", that he truly fell in love with the music, and used rap to combat his speaking troubles. He started to write his own rap at the age of 13, and produce his own beats to accompany them. A couple years later, HEATHs parents got divorced, leaving HEATH in a very rough period in school. Smoking vast amounts of weed through secondary to deal with the stress of his home life, HEATH continued to make his music never the less, collaborating with his close friend from a young age 'Big Josh'. Noticing that his music career was moving too slowly for his comfort in Cambridge, the pair decided to move to London in pursuit of his music career, with 'Big Josh' acting as a manager as well as his closest friend.
