Voice AKA Derrick Myers, was born December 4th, to Patricia and Marc Myers. He was raised by only his father until he was 8, due to his mother's alcohol abuse. Voice was later forced to live with his mother because of a drug conviction on his father, which moved him to Tennesse. His mother was in a violent relationship with her second husband, which forced Voice and his mother to leave everything they owned and live in and out of shelter's for abused mothers for almost two years. Voice ended up changing schools almost 7 times in one year, spawning a social retreat within himself, sending him to his only refuge; his notebook. They ended up finding a very small 2 bedroom house to rent from, but the city was a lot for his mother to handle him by herself, and Voice was getting out of control very quickly. With a major rap-sheet building, she realized that she could no longer control him, so she sent him to live with his father back in Ohio by the age of 16. It was too late for Voice, though... by age 17, Voice was charged with an Aggravated Robbery, which sent him to Prison until he reached the age of 23. During his time in prison, Voice developed a talent for "Battling", a rap term often used to describe a war with words. Most people who got involved with these battles were'nt too happy about one person always beating them so badly, so they came up with a new twist in the battling scene: Tag-Team Battles. There was usually one guy, battling up to 3 people at one time: no rules, and no time limit. Voice maintained his composure, and was victorious most of the time. It earned him a title, and the name of "Voice". People would tell him, "Man, everytime you say somethin', people just shut up and listen. It's like you're speakin' for them... like, you're the voice of the nation or somethin'...runnin
