Cuz, formerly known as SL Jones, was born in Flint, Michigan and shortly after moved with his family to Little Rock, Arkansas, where he was
raised in a neighborhood known as 23rd & Wolfe Street. The rapper has described his neighborhood as being in a gang-heavy part of the city, a
collection of smaller Crip and Blood affiliated neighborhoods often referred to as the "War Zone." He regularly raps about and references his
hometown and neighborhood, with the number 23, taken from the street's name, serving as a recurring theme in his music.
