Speaking on his YouTube channel he revealed,
"When we moved abroad, I had completely quit music. I was working back in the States as a truck driver," he said.
I USED TO DRIVE A LORRY, TRYING TO SURVIVE."
The 'Malaika' hitmaker says the first two years he was in Delaware, before he moved to Michigan.
"That experience taught me a lot. Two things that were life-changing for me back then was one, when I was here, I was a star," he said.
"People recognized me everywhere and we were doing what we loved.
I moved from a place where I was known and getting a bit of favours here and there to a place where no one knows me."
