"When I was 21, I got stabbed in the neck." Scrappie Gee sets the tone for one profound episode, sharing how a near-death experience transformed his mindset and fueled his relentless drive. Now 23, the San Bernardino artist wakes up every day with overwhelming gratitude, running five miles and reminding himself, "Damn, I'm really here right now."
Scrappie opens up about how music started as a personal diary—an outlet for thoughts he couldn’t say out loud—before becoming a way to connect with others facing similar struggles. His latest project Talk About It reflects this vulnerability, while his Ball Rolling Entertainment clothing brand represents his philosophy: success comes from staying in motion, even after setbacks.
But his ambitions don’t stop at music. Since taking up boxing in January, Scrappie has committed to intense training with plans to compete by 2026, eventually expanding into kickboxing, Muay Thai, and jiu-jitsu. His “tunnel vision” mindset is clear when he challenges listeners to ask themselves: "Are you truly happy, or just riding life's wave?"
Follow Scrappie Gee’s journey on Instagram and YouTube @scrappie.gee as he turns personal tragedy into triumph through music, boxing, and entrepreneurship. His story is a powerful reminder that sometimes, our greatest motivation comes from simply being grateful for another chance at life.
