About Logic
The rapper Logic was born Sir Robert Bryson Hall II at Shady Grove Hospital in Maryland. His father had an addiction to cocaine while his mother was an alcoholic.

When he was a teenager, he witnessed his brothers producing and selling crack cocaine in the corners of the neighborhood to addicts, his father included. He went to Gaithersburg High School. He however, was expelled in the 10th grade due to missing classes. He didn’t graduate.
When Logic was 13, he met his mentor Solomon Taylor. He introduced him to the rap game and movies like Quentin Tarantino‘s Kill Bill: Volume 1, also helped him gain an interest in rap and hip-hop. The Kill Bill Vol. 1 Original Soundtrack was organized, and mostly produced by Wu-Tang Clan member RZA. Logic progressed on to listening to Wu-Tang. Later that year he bought “Do You Want More?!!?!” by The Roots. Solomon also brought Logic many CDs containing beat instrumentals for which he wrote lyrics over.
Logic’s stage name in 2009 was “Psychological” when he did his first performance. It was a name he loved because he wanted it to reflect on his music, he wanted his music to challenge the mind.
