Producer Lil C4, born in Elizabeth and raised in Newark, New Jersey, took an interest in music as early as 12 years old during elementary school. Once making music became habitual for him, the computer was moved from his mother's basement to his living room. Dedicated and ambitious, C4 teamed up with guys he grew up with to dance, and get the Jersey Club feel going amongst their close group of friends. C4 did not realize the length or potential of his talents in the beginning. During his initial years of learning his craft and the business, his older brother C4Musiq motivated and educated him on the basics, which helped to strengthen his career.
