Lil Bean On Growing Up In Towerside, Losing His Dad At 11

History of the Bay Podcast Ep. 63 - full interview: • Lil Bean: SF's Geneva ...
In San Francisco's Geneva Towers housing projects, Lil Bean's father, Bner, was a neighborhood factor who exposed him to Bay Area rappers like Mac Dre and Messy Marv. When Bean was 11, his father died and he became the man of the house. After turning down opportunities to play college basketball, he transitioned to rapping as a way to provide for his family. Since then, Bean has racked up millions of views and streams, toured the country with 24kGoldn, appeared on Empire's Fo15 album produced by Zaytoven, and started his own clothing line, Beno World. Lil Bean has already made history as one of the hottest up-and-coming rappers from SF.

I’m not a Baydestrian, I’m from Daygo but got love ones from the bay. Being from Daygo we was always tuned in to Bay Area music whether it was from the Sco, to the V to the town. Lil Bean definitely one of the best of his generation that’s consistent and hard working.
