Early years
Millz was born in Harlem, Manhattan, New York City.[1] His rapping abilities gained him a spot on a DJ Kay Slay mixtape.[2] Millz gained popularity in mixtape battles (most notably against Murda Mook,ty streetz, Sire Castro, and E-Ness). Millz' underground popularity earned him a recording deal with Wanna Blow Ent.[3]
Jae Millz was the first artist signed to Tone & Nige's Wanna Blow Ent. label. Due to the hype surrounding Jae in late 2003, Wanna Blow signed a distribution deal with Warner Bros. Records.[4] Despite the popularity and hype, Warner Bros. failed to deliver an album, leading to Jae Millz and Wanna Blow departing the label. They immediately reached a deal with SRC Records and Universal Records.[5]
