METRO BOOMIN - Before They Were Famous - BIOGRAPHY - Record Producer

METRO BOOMIN Before They Were Famous -- Producer Metro Boomin has collaborated with rappers like Future, Drake, 21 Savage, Gucci Mane, Young Thug, and Kanye West, just to name a few. But while he grew up in St. Louis idolizing Nelly, his aspirations to get into the hip hip game himself were curbed by his mother's aspirations for him to get a proper education at Morehouse. Watch his life story here on Before They Were Famous.

Metro Boomin the definition of a real dude that didnt have to be on no illegal shit to move up in the rap game

[@Sbzmike]

Facts and got into a good college. That's just respect all around.

[@ChaceBonanno]

No he just signed to someone that does illegal shit

[@dan9erplays502]

true

[@sofreshsoclean4481]

This is a great role model. Once you move up and start getting noticed, without doing illegal stuff, and you hit the top you can do anything you like after that because you worked hard for it. This guy is my idol. Very talented guy that did the right moves. #MetroBoomin

[@alejandrorobles1343]

Youngest MVP He not in the rap game per say niqqa he a producer

[@kellendiverson7459]

Metro boomin my influence this dude worked hard for his shit.

[@tstkids779]

Kellen Diverson yea and now he made the hottest beat of 2017...*mask off*

[@angelcfc1323]

trevon prince he sampled it lol look up prison song

[@finn264]

Angel CFC 13 lots of producers sample, a good producer can take a sample and put their own twist on it

[@angelcfc1323]

Little Fav I know that,but this guy said he made the hottest beat of the summer,but it was sampled,so he basically borrowed it

[@finn264]

Angel CFC 13 he changed it up though, one of my favorite examples of sampling is one of Pretty Lights beats called "Finally Moving" it's a nice old school beat but pretty lights took various samples from different sources and made something his own style and original

[@MeanLeanGaming]
