She imposed strict rules at home due to which he would often run away from his home and meet up with his friends. During a 2021 interview with Rolling Stone, he said, “I came from the gutter part of Memphis — like the bottom. To just have tunnel vision to get out should really tell you about my character.”

Demario went to the Mitchell High School in the city, this is where he got his stage name ‘Moneybagg Yo’ as a tribute to his hustler’s community.
