As a teen, he convinced his parents to let him postpone college for a year to focus solely on music...Lookas credits Miami's sketchy all-ages party circuit for pushing him into producing his own material. "There was [one club] where they would throw events and I would go there and get ripped off by the promoters. I would go there and DJ for like 1,000 kids and not get paid," he says. "So I told myself I would stop playing these gigs and getting ripped off, and spending some time writing music."
