Born and raised in East L.A., Anthony grew up in a chaotic home without definable parental role models. Raised instead by his grandfather, Anthony was just 18 when his grandpa passed away, leaving him angry and frustrated. That's when he began attending backyard shows. Today, Anthony is confident and clearly very popular. He tells us, "Your friends are the family you choose."

Music: "Jellyfish Are Murderers" by I am Sonic Rain and "We're Here to Stay" by Aggressive N Rude
