Odd-1 (of the group Area 51), is from Atlanta, Ga, raised on the Southside of town. He started rapping at the young age of 11. Odd-1 was apart of T-Rock's (formerly of Hypnotized Minds) Rock Solid Music imprint. The two met each other around the age of 13, and then pursued music together, along with other artists including Red Knight, and members of a group called DEEP. At age 16, Odd-1 went on the road with Comedian Doo Doo Brown performing at different venues in Atlanta and throughout the south. Around that same time, T-Rock signed a deal with Three Six Mafia. Later after T-Rock left Hypnotized Minds, the two started the group Area 51 (founded in 2001) along with other members, and dropped music independently. In 2008, Odd-1 dropped his first solo album and launched his own label called Armageddon Ent. Since then, he has released albums throughout the years, along with features with major artists and mixtapes. Odd-1 is a vet in the game and has vowed to stay independent and never sell his soul!!!!
