At the time, his mother was 17 and his father was 16. His father is half Filipino. Brown\'s talent for rhyming came at a very young age, as his mother would read Dr. Seuss books to him as a child; when he began to speak, he would talk in rhyme. His father was a house DJ who exposed Brown to all the music he would spin, as well as music from the likes of Roy Ayers, LL Cool J, Esham, and A Tribe Called Quest. For as long as he could remember, Brown had always wanted to be a rapper: "In kindergarten I\'d say I wanted to be a rapper and people\'d just laugh at me. \'That\'s a pretty funny job,\' they\'d say."\n', '
