Bigg Baggz shares his powerful journey from betrayal and federal prison to music success and entrepreneurship, offering wisdom on resilience and transformation along the way.
• Bigg Baggz (formerly 704 Bags) was set up by someone he'd known for 20 years who wore a wire during a drug transaction
• After signing a music deal with Sony One 9 Music in February 2021, he was arrested in March and served nearly four years in federal prison
• His label stood by him throughout his incarceration, even using his music to secure a distribution deal with Rock Nation
• Time in prison taught him to appreciate small things and remain humble—"When I went in, I was 704 Bags, but when I got to the feds, he died"
• His clothing brand "Good and Evil" represents life's duality with a logo featuring a baby with both angelic and devilish elements
• Currently promoting his "650 I Pack" with three singles, with the Good and Evil LP scheduled for May and a documentary premiering May 4th
• Aims to create positive outlets for youth in his hometown to provide alternatives to street life
