Brian Breach is a multi-talented individual who has made a name for himself as a creator, entertainer, TedX speaker, and social media influencer. However, his journey to success was shaped by a challenging upbringing in a tumultuous environment, marked by a distant father and an abusive mother. At the age of 13, tragedy struck when he lost his mother to AIDS, turning his life upside down and forcing him onto a path of self-reliance.

Throughout his teenage years, Brian faced further hardships, enduring the loss of several more family members and experiencing one tragedy after another. It was during high school that he not only worked multiple jobs but also discovered a passion for music, which became his solace during difficult times and a catalyst for his entrepreneurial spirit.

Following high school, Brian formed a group with his friends, including Lex One, and embarked on a musical journey that spanned over a decade. They had the opportunity to perform alongside some of the biggest names in the hip-hop industry, and one of their songs even aired nationally on a television show for three years. Alongside his music career, Brian co-founded the independent label GTPS and the highly successful hip-hop blog Getthatpaperson.
