Matty Boy, a native of Contra Costa County, California, experienced a turbulent upbringing that led him into the criminal underworld. Raised by parents affiliated with the notorious Hells Angels and California prison gangs, he quickly found himself immersed in a life of crime, becoming a major player in the methamphetamine trade and founder of the street gang FAIM (Family Affiliated Irish Mafia). However, his criminal activities eventually landed him in federal court, facing the possibility of a life sentence.

Following his release from prison, Matty Boy embarked on a mission to turn his life around, dedicating the past six years to his true passion: music. Inspired by the late Bay Area rapper Mac Dre, as well as current artists like Benny the Butcher, Westside Gunn, EST Gee, and J Cole, Matty Boy has released over 50 singles and an EP titled The Emergence of Matty Boy. With an ever-growing fanbase, he continues to make a name for himself and shows no signs of slowing down.
