Sir Robert Bryson Hall II- better known as Logic, took his first step into the music industry with the release of his mixtape, Young Broke & Infamous in 2010. Hailing from Maryland, he spent his childhood in the less-than-affluent neighborhood of West Deer Park, where a significant amount of residents lived in poverty. Growing up, he saw both of his parents succumb to alcoholism and drug addiction.
Despite the negative influences around him, he managed to stay out of trouble. At the age of thirteen, he developed an interest in hip hop after watching the first Kill Billfilm. By 2009, Logic was already performing in the local music circuit. The following winter, he dropped his debut mix-tape, Young Broke & Infamous which garnered him nationwide attention.
Since then, the rap star has put forth two additional albums, a handful of mix-tapes and ten singles. Supported by his successful music career, it is currently estimated that he has a fortune of $10 million.

After dropping out of high school in tenth grade, Logic started to grow interested in rap music, partly influenced by the film, Kill Bill: Volume 1 (2003).

By 2009, Logic had began performing under the moniker, “Psychological”; shortly afterwards, he released his first unofficial mix-tape called, Psychological – Logic: The Mixtape. From there, the aspiring rapper received a small break after being invited to open for artists such as Ludacris, EPMD, Pitbull and Method Man in Maryland.
