Being a Puerto Rican kid in Los Angeles, Cloudy was exposed to rap music early...particularly West Coast Rap. By the time he was in middle school, Cloudy was writing songs, rapping with friends at school, and even putting some stuff out on SoundCloud. The thought of taking a career in music seriously never crossed his mind. In early 2022, Cloudy got a song placed in a company’s ad campaign.
