$pliff was born in 1993 in the small town of Columbus, Mississippi. At the young age of 12, he moved with his father to Murfreesboro, Tennessee after the passing of his mother. During that time, he began to write poetry as a way of expressing his thoughts. $pliff started to take rapping seriously through his high school years at Siegel High School. After finishing high school $pliff took a trip back to his home state of Mississippi to go to college. His major was undecided and his eventual course of study was music, libations, and women. He moved back to Murfreesboro after one semester only to run into problems with the law that led to him being sentenced to the better part of a year in jail. He used the time to write poetry and music to keep his spirits up. In October of 2016, $pliff recorded his debut EP "Gone Til December" in only 48 hours before he was required to check in to rehab after continued legal trouble. It was the ultimate wake-up call for him. He followed up on "Gone Til December" with his hyped-up, end of summer EP "#IDGAF" in September of 2017. In March of 2018, $pliff released the deeply personal and introspective Tree Shading 3 Stones EP. He is expected to announce his first full length project later this year.
