 On February 11, 1991 Jarvis “Zach Billion$” DuBose was born in the High bridge section of the Bronx. Billion$ has lived in New York city all his life. Raised by his mother until he was 14 years of age.
Jarvis was aggressive and rebellious, which landed him in many different residential homes in Westchester New York. Jarvis returned to the Bronx when he was 16years of age and moved in with his grandmother where he now reside.
Jarvis “Zach Billion$” DuBose Showed a huge interested in music since he was 14 years old. He went on writing and playing the Guitar. Jarvis had big dreams only he can see at that time, like most artists who did not graduate from high school, people did not think he would amount to anything.
But the huge talent in music that Billion$ has shown to his family and friends let everybody know that he is and will become a great artist. Billion$ became a father to a baby girl at the age of 18, although becoming a hip hop artist is his dream, becoming a father at a young age just pushed him harder to do what he knows and love.
