A Boogie Wit Da Hoodie Biography (Age, Wiki)
Even though he is most popular with his stage name (A Boogie Wit Da Hoodie), or as A Boogie, it was as Julius Dubose that the rapper was born on December 6, 1995, in Highbridge, New York City. It was there that he was brought up, and that became significant in his career as his neighborhood was a place where everyone was either rapping or listening to rap songs.
For his education, the young rapper attended the DeWitt Clinton High School, and once he was done, he decided not to further his education rather, he opted to develop his musical talent.
From then on, he lived between Florida and New York because his parents were trying to get him out of the troubles that he was constantly getting into. At a point, he was even arrested for possession of marijuana.
What has brought fame to him is his musical career that began with a single, Temporary. That did not take him anywhere, making him get back to some more practice before later releasing it again. His career was fully launched in 2016 when he released his first mixtape titled Artist.
His first studio album, The Bigger Artist was released in 2017. The album further pushed him to the mainstream. It peaked at 10 on the Canadian billboard, 9 on New Zealand Heatseeker Albums, 4 on US Billboard 200, and 1 on US Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums. His second album The International Artist was released in 2018.

He revealed that before now, he was in a relationship with a lady whom he had loved, but things didn’t go smoothly as she became pregnant with another man only to make the young rapper believe it was his. Even though he revealed that it left him pained, it didn’t go without serving among the inspirations for his first mixtape which had songs like “Still Thinking About You” and “D.T.B” (which means don’t trust bitches).
