Introduction

Hopsin is well known for wearing white contacts in his eyes that give him a distinct, sort of eerie kind of look.

After being in the music business a few years, Hopsin released the single, “Sag My Pants, which is what made his popularity soar.

Later a track off his second album, Raw, received a gold certification from the RIAA when it sold more than 500,000 units in the US.

Early Life

Hopsin was born on July 18th, 1985, in Los Angeles, California as Marcus Jamal Hopson. He was raised in a Hispanic neighborhood known as the Panorama City where he attended James Monroe High School and was placed in special education classes.

Aside from music, Hopsin was also a big fan of skateboarding, which is apparent in many of his videos where he is on a skateboard.

Hopsin began rapping when he was 16 years old and was putting out projects from as early as 2002 when he released the track, “Emurge”.

Interesting Facts

Hopsin claims he never smoked, drank, or taken any recreational drugs whatsoever in his life and has criticized the way entertainers promote drug and alcohol use among youths.

In fact, the rapper emphasizes on being against drug and alcohol usage and the irreversible impacts they can cause in some of his songs like Nocturnal Rainbows.

Some of the reasons why Hopsin left Ruthless Records is because he claims they never really supported the production of his album Gazing at the Moonlight and they didn’t even allow him to hear the finished master before releasing it publicly.

Hopsin removed the white-colored contact lenses from his image, but still stands out from the rest with his complete drug and alcohol-free lifestyle.
