My friend Tyrone Cox and I were the winners of the Youth Transformation Center talent show for our rap music. Before that I couldn’t get anyone to even pay attention to my talent out on the street. Youth Transformation Center made it possible for me to win a full scholarship to an important local music school. I don’t get into trouble any more out on the streets and I’m being a great father to my little boy. Someday I want to be a music producer. I think I just needed someone to believe in me.
