He then graduated to selling school supplies throughout elementary school, then candy in middle school and early high school. Shortly after arriving to high school, Shamar fell in bad company and began his relationship with drugs and street culture.

He started his street hustle by selling knives and ended it shortly after he began selling cocaine.At the age of sixteen, Shamar replaced his love of the streets with a burning passion for God. He began teaching, then preaching the Word of God. Since, receiving his ministry license in 2003, Shamar has continued to experience lifes many ups and downs.
