Early life
Throughout her childhood, Seandrea Sledge Dreezy moved to a number of locations throughout the city of Chicago.
To escape issues that a number of teens face (blended families, constantly having new friends, and problems at home) Sledge looked into the fine arts, which helped her deal with some of the realities of her life.
She explored scatting, poetry writing, and drifted towards singing at the age of 10.
Sledge always felt like music was her internal escapism, and by the age of 14, she found interest in becoming a rapper.
Sledge has cited rappers J. Cole and Lil Wayne as her biggest musical influences, referring to the former as her favourite rapper of all time.
