IN THE COLDEST WINTER EVER A YOUNG STAR IN THE MAKING WAS BORN. HOWEVER, WHILE GROWING UP THINGS DID NOT ALWAYS LOOK SO BRIGHT FOR M.E.L. AKA MONTANA. HE IS THE OLDEST OF FOUR CHILDREN RAISED BY A SINGLE MOTHER. HIS EARLY YEARS IN LIFE WERE SPENT IN BRICKYARD. WHILE LIVING IN WISTER TOWNHOUSES AND HAVING LIMITED ACCESS TO MONEY JAMEL HAD TO BEGIN TO TAKE CARE OF HIMSELF AND SIBLINGS. IN THE PROCESS OF MAKING SURE HIS FAMILY WAS TAKEN CARE OF, JAMEL WOULD OFTEN FIND HIMSELF GETTING INTO TROUBLE WITH THE LAW. HE MADE THE CHOICE TO MOVE OUT FROM HIS MOM AT THE AGE OF 16 AND HAD TO COMPLETELY PROVIDE FOR HIMSELF AND HE STILL FELT OBLIGATED TO BE THERE FOR HIS BROTHER AND SISTERS. THIS WILD DRUG DEALING LIFE ULTIMATELY LED HIM TO LEAVING G-TOWN AND MOVING 45 MILES SOUTH TO WILMINGTON, DEL. IT IS SAFE TO SAY THAT MONTANA WAS ALWAYS INTERESTED IN A RAP CAREER HIS EARLY INFLUENCES WHERE 2PAC, THUG LIFE, SPICE 1, COMPTONS MOST WANTED, NWA, SNOOP DOGG, BDP, PUBLIC ENEMY, BUT DUE TO MANY NEGATIVE FORCES. JUST WHEN MONTANA THOUGHT HE COULD HAVE A BETTER LIFE IN DELAWARE, HE REALIZED HOW EASY IT WAS FOR A LIFE OF CRIME TOO BEGAN AGAIN. MONTANA CONTINUED TO LOVE RAP BUT HE COULD NOT LEAVE THE STREETS AND THIS LED HIM TO BE SENTENCED IN A GEORGETOWN STATE PRISON FOR 5YEARS. DURING THIS TIME, MONTANA PERFECTED HIS FLOW AND EVERYONE KNEW THAT HE WAS THE HOTTEST RAPPER EVEN THOUGH HE WAS NOT A SIGNED ARTIST. JAMEL WAS RELEASED FROM PRISON AFTER HIS TIME WAS SUSPENED IN 2 YEARS, HE STILL WAS VERY CONNECTED TO THE STREETS , TRYING TO FOCUS ON RAP ALTHOUGH NEVER FORGETTING ABOUT HIS ROOTS OF BRICK YARD. MONTANA DECIDED HE WOULD REPRESENT BOTH BRICK YARD AND 22ND ST(DEL). HOODS AND TRAVEL BACK AND FORTH PROMOTING HIS MUSIC. JAMEL IS A MEMBER OF THE CLICK C.H.M 22ND ST. THAT HE OFTEN SPEAKS ABOUT IN HIS LYRICS. THIS YEAR HAS BEEN AS REAL AS IT CAN GET FOR JAMEL AFTER HIM AND HIS SIBLINGS RELOCATED THIER FATHER AFTER 20 YEARS. 2 MONTHS LATER JAMES WEEKS PASSED AWAY(R.I.P.)1 MONTH LATER JAMEL AND OTHER MEMBERS OF CHM WHERE BEING CHARGED WITH MURDER DUE TO GANG RELATED REASONS.AND OTHER SEPARATE CHARGES AND CASES.
