In the Hip-Hop realm and in life it is easy to “follow the leader”, but the road less traveled is usually the one baring the footsteps of true innovators. Individuals who establish their own vision, institute their own demeanor, and their own style are the ones who end up making a mark in the music industry; people like Firstclass Cashlife . He is a proud father, a successful businessman, a recognized Street Icon, and a Hip Hop barrier. With all these titles under his belt, no wonder why he is true innovator.<br /><br />Firstclass Cashlife is a true native of Atlanta, Georgia. Having to grow up in the notorious streets of Bankhead, he was forced to acknowledge and accept the cards life dealt him. Being his mother’s only child, Firstclass was forced to grow up fast. While his mother worked two jobs and pursued her college degree, he ended up gravitating to the “street life”. By having both the influences and teachings from many family members in the street game, Firstclass knew that he could make a name for himself in Atlanta, it was just a matter of when and how!<br /><br />If Firstclass learned nothing else from his experiences in the streets, he at least learned to “Stay down fa ya Crown” and “Be ya own Boss”! Putting both of these sayings into practice, Firstclass finally started doing something he loved… MUSIC! Between putting prophetic words down on paper and creating a beat behind it, Firstclass would soon find out that he had a unique talent in music production, writing, and lyricism. So he knew immediately that this was the beginning of something great.
