Chris says that he would try to imitate the moves that he saw Michael Jackson perform.
When he was in elementary school, he performed an Usher song and his parents realized he had talent beyond others his age, so they started looking for a record deal.
Sadly, during this process, Chris’s parents divorced. His mother’s new boyfriend physically abused Chris’ mother, so it was tough for Chris to focus on his music, but he persevered.
