Dusty Locane

Reginald Miot was raised in "a good home," not "subjected to the harsh realities of living in the hood," in Canarsie, Brooklyn, New York. His father is Haitian and his mother is Trinidadian, which led to him listening to soca music as a child, in addition to hip hop and R&B. He attended college for a year before getting expelled and initially wanted to pursue a career in basketball. He then spent some time in jail, and started considering a music career seriously upon being released. He is affiliated with the Rollin' 60s Neighborhood Crips. The rapper has three children, a son born on March 23, 2022, a daughter born June 11, 2022, and another son born in August 2022. ==Career==
