Logic: Bio & Age
His real name is Sir Robert Bryson Hall II and he was born on January 22, 1990. However, he is easily recognizable by the name Logic, which reflects the ring of greatness in the entertainment industry since his debut.
He grew up in Gaithersburg, Maryland but never enjoyed the prosperity that came with that type of place as he had to survive under welfare, social services etc. The unstable family environment in which he grew up took its toll on his education, as Logic was placed in a class for students with behavioral problems, and his mother attended his school. Later in the 5th grade, his mother pulled him back to send him to school, but this never came to fruition. Instead, he was confronted with many videos that led him to develop admiration and interest in Frank Sinatra. Social Services eventually pushed him into the situation and forced him back to school in time for eighth grade. Logic couldn’t finish high school because he was expelled from school,
His career
He took up odd, low-income jobs like Joe’s, Crab Shack, Jiffy Lube, and daycare to survive. He later developed a strong passion for music as he saw it as an escape and it paid off for him. He draws his inspiration from his childhood experiences and they weren’t the best memories a child should have but never allowed such a poor upbringing to shape his future. As the popular saying goes, “What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger,” these words play out in the musician’s life.
He rose to fame when he joined Def Jam Recordings and Visionary Music Group, where he released his debut album, Titled Under Pressure . The album dominated the American AAP, R&B, and hip-hop charts for a while, and in 2015 he released his second album entitled ‘ The Incredible Story ‘. Logic has about 5 studio albums to his credit.
He has received approximately six internationally recognized nominations, three of which he has won for Best Fight Against the System at the MTV Video Music Awards for Black Spider-Man .
2017 saw the release of Logic’s third album, titled Everyone Hit the Top of Billboard 200; His hit single in the album was certified Triple Platinum by the RIAA.
He has always made it clear that his inspiration comes from Frank Sinatra, who has had a positive influence on his music career.
