early life
Big Sean, formerly known as Sean Michael Leonard Anderson, was born on March 25, 1988 in Santa Monica, California. He moved to Detroit, Michigan when he was 3 months old and was raised by his mother, teacher, and grandmother, who served in World War II. When Big Sean mentioned “West Side” in his song, he was actually referring to the west side of Detroit, not California. He graduated from Cass Technical High School with 3.7 GPA.
Profession
Big Sean started rap in high school and showed off his skills in a weekly rap competition hosted by a local hip-hop radio station in Detroit. In 2005, when he heard that Kanye West would be interviewing on the radio at the station, he went there to greet him and try to perform some freestyle for him. West didn’t want to hear his voice, but gave in, and Kanye was reportedly impressed. He left West’s demo tapes, and at the same time, Big Sean began to build a following through the Internet and a series of self-published mixing tapes around 2007. In 2008, West signed Big Sean to his label GOOD music, which is the mark of Def Jam Recordings. On April 30, 2010, the collaboration “Made” between Big Sean and Drake was leaked on the Internet. Big Sean was disappointed by the leak because he felt that the song was not completed in music or lyrics.
Big Sean’s first studio album “Finally Famous” was released in June 2011. It ranked third on the billboard charts and brought three hit singles to Big Sean: My Last, Marvin & Chardonnay and Dance (Ass). From John Legend to Kanye West to Wiz Khalifa, the album has a lot of guest appearances. Obtained platinum certification in 2017.
His second studio album “Hall of Fame” was released in August 2013 and also debuted at No. 3, which received rave reviews. It received gold certification in October 2017. His third album, “Dark Sky Paradise”, debuted in February 2015 and ranked first on the billboard charts, becoming his first album. Collaborators on the album again include Kayne, Ty Dolla Sign, Ariana Grande and others. Dark Night Paradise received platinum certification in February 2016.
