| 5 | During his rough upbringing in Atlanta, Georgia, where he moved to after his parents and where he saw a close friend being shot and killed, Makonnen started making music in his bedroom, uploading it to Website/Myspace, and making connections in Atlanta's music scene. He started working with various producers creating songs and in July 2014, he released his first self-titled EP. The EP contained the song "Club Goin’ Up on a Tuesday," which attracted superstar rapper Music/{{Drake}}'s attention. Drake would then collaborate with Makonnen on the remix of the track titled "Tuesday," which became a hit, making it all the way to number 12 on the Billboard Hot 100 and scoring a number 1 on the Billboard R&B chat and would led to Makonnen's breakthrough in the music world. |
