Artistry

While talking about how did he develop his sing-song sound in an interview with Noisey, Lucci said; "Growing up I always had this high-pitched voice. I couldn't ever sing, you smell me, but I had a little high-pitched voice when I talked loud. I used to listen to Ja Rule. I knew how to rap, and I used to write my verses. And if it don't sound right when I rap it, I sing it. And it'd sound better. I used to let all my friends hear it, and they were like "I like that." I just ran with it. If I can't sing it, I rap it."[12]

Personal life

Lucci has two children, a son and a daughter.[12]
