“I really did start from the bottom,” he said. “There was nothing about my childhood that was easy. In my mind I knew there was something greater out there.”
Although he grew up in a tough neighborhood in South Central Los Angeles, the 33-year-old said he never let his circumstance limit his goals for a better life. “I was exposed to it all — gangs, murder, prostitution, drugs. I lived in the streets and at one point I was homeless. I never stopped myself from dreaming beyond my reality,” he said.
In the documentary, Tyrese shares the story of his childhood and how he managed to rise to superstardom.
