Mr. Doctor is a rapper from Sacramento, CA. He grew up in the Lincoln Village neighborhood in Rancho Cordova, a suburb of Sacramento. As a witness to gang violence at an early age, Mr. Doctor quickly became enamored with the local gang Northgate Crips. By age 14, he had spent several months in juvenile lockup for crimes ranging from grand theft auto to robbery. The next few years of his life had him living between his grandparents' house in Lincoln Village, his mother's house in South Sacramento, and juvenile hall. Eventually, Mr. Doctor was invited to Enharmonic, a studio in Sacramento, to observe a recording session. There, he met producer and rapper Brotha Lynch Hung, who convinced him to try rapping. The two put together the track "Leavin' 'Em Wit No Clue" for Black Market Records and soon Mr. Doctor was signed to the label. The success of Lynch's debut album Season of da Siccness spurred the creation of Setripn' Bloccstyle, Mr. Doctor's first full-length on Black Market.
