Early life

Everald Dewar Jr. was born in New York City to Jamaican parents. When he was three years old, his father died. In the fourth grade, Dewar attended Public School 222 Elementary School in Brooklyn, New York, where he formed his first rap band with close friend Jakk the Rhymer (real name Jahkari Jack).

Edward R. Murrow High School's dewar was recalled by his classmates as a "smiling kid with a short afro and skinny jeans" who made friends quickly, skated, smoked cannabis often, and was a sneakerhead.

Dewar, who was raised as a Christian, rejected those ideals during high school and instead embraced Rastafari, which would later become a central part of his life. Dewar's views changed once more as he began to watch Spirit Science, a popular YouTube series about metaphysical and spiritual theories.

Personal life

Steez's spiritual journey included elements of Egyptian mysticism, numerology, astral projection, and the Indian chakra system. He regarded himself as one of the Indigo children and was reportedly mistaken for a being of a higher dimension. Steez was infatuated by the number 47 and what it meant spiritually. The number 47 was considered the "right picture of balance in the world," demonstrating the difference between the heart and the brain (the fourth and seventh chakra, respectively), according to the author.
