Early Life

Drawing inspiration from artists like Boosie Badazz, Kevin Gates, Gucci Mane, and Chief Keef. Growing up, he showed a passion for basketball, playing on his high school team with dreams of joining the NBA, but poor grades led to his removal from the team.

He dropped out of high school in his senior year to focus on rapping, a decision that marked the start of his music career. Of African American descent, JayDaYoungan was raised in a Christian household, reflecting the predominant religious culture of his community.

Inspired by Southern rap heavyweights like Boosie Badazz and Kevin Gates, he developed a raw, melodic style rooted in storytelling about street life and personal struggles. His early tracks found an audience on SoundCloud, where his authenticity quickly drew attention from fans beyond his hometown.

In 2017, JayDaYoungan released his debut mixtape Ruffwayy, which showcased his unique flow and built his regional buzz. A year later, his breakout single Interstate, from the tape The Real Jumpman 23, helped him gain national recognition.

That same year, he delivered two well-received projects—Endless Pain, which charted at #70 on the Billboard 200, and Misunderstood, which climbed to #44—solidifying his place in the Southern rap scene with a blend of trap beats and introspective lyrics.

In 2020, JayDaYoungan dropped his debut studio album Baby23, which peaked at #46 on the Billboard 200 and featured collaborations with stars like Lil Durk and Moneybagg Yo.

The rapper was struck at least eight times during a drive-by shooting outside his family home, where he had been sitting with his father, Kenyatta Scott, who was also injured but survived the attack.

His first son, Jadarius Scott, was born on June 5, 2020, with his longtime girlfriend Jordan B, whom he began dating around 2017 and often described as his “first love” and “first everything.” Their child became a central inspiration for his debut studio album, Baby23.

In 2022, JayDaYoungan welcomed a second child, Amazi Breeze Scott, with social media influencer CaRena Vonchae, who was his partner at the time of his death.

Tragically, the infant passed away from a viral infection on June 19, 2022, just nine days after his birth on June 10, leaving both parents devastated. Vonchae later mourned JayDaYoungan as her “best friend” and reflected on the double heartbreak of losing both him and their baby within weeks of each other.

His dating history primarily included his long-term relationship with Jordan B, followed by his public romance with CaRena Vonchae. However, his personal life also faced controversies; in March 2020, JayDaYoungan was arrested on charges of assaulting a pregnant woman, though her identity was not publicly confirmed.
