Milk Tyson (born May 1st 1986), is an American recording artist, motivational speaker and founder of Fam4Fam who was previously known as the celebrity weed mogul.[1]
Early life[edit]
Milk was born at Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston, Massachusetts[2] and attended the Chatham school district in Barnstable County Massachusetts. Most of his early life was spent in Cape Cod, and is where he discovered his passion for music when listening to Elvis Presley.[3] During his middle school years he began to listen to hip-hop and when he entered high school he became passionate about creating and writing lyrics. This led to him ignoring school and putting all of his energy into his music, which led to him dropping out of high school.[4]
Severe Health Issues[edit]
Near the completion of his second mix-tape, he began to have health problems which forced him to be in and out of the hospital, where he was diagnosed with severe thrombocytopenia. This required frequent platelet transfusions and weekly bone marrow biopsies. His condition got worse and was admitted to the South Shore Hospital in Weymouth, Massachusetts and stayed over three months.[5] This gave him a lot of time to think and this is when he decided he would move to California and pursue his music career. As soon as he was released from the hospital he gathered up his stuff and set out for Hollywood, California.
Los Angeles[edit]
As soon as Milk arrived in LA he began to write music for himself and others, which led to him putting out an album entitle "I Don't Want To get A Job", which was met with decent success, but was quickly deleted due to various artist development deals that were put on the table.[6]
Medical Marijuana Delivery[edit]
On August 27th 2012 Milk was a guest on The Naughty Show where he was introduced to a Medical Marijuana delivery company. He was able to help them by being able to leverage[7] his celebrity relationships to help build up the marijuana delivery service, until he branched off and started his own company named Emerald Express. This company made major waves by giving celebrities their own strain such as Bad Boy Recording Artists Machine Gun Kelly with his own Lace Up Og [8]
LA Music Scene[edit]
Milk returned to the music scene once meeting Bricc Baby Shitro aka Shitty and released several freestyles.[9] , and he has other work coming out during all of 2015.
Socialite , Party Host and Birthday Shooting[edit]
On April 29th 2013 Milk Tyson had a party thrown for his birthday at a popular venue in LA, which led to him becoming a socialite and party host throwing parties all across the united states. During his birthday party in LA a shooting at the venue left a man critically injured.[10][11][12][13][14][15]
Famous Celebrity Feuds[edit]
In april of 2014 Drake Bell insulted Milk's friend Justin Beiber and Milk quickly jumped to his defense, which started a feud[16][17][18] [19][20][21][22][23] [24]
Fam4Fam Charity Organization[edit]
Milk started to use Twitter and Instagram as an outlet to talk about his own anxiety and depression issues, and because of his status a bunch of people started to relate. Milk saw this as an opportunity to turn it into a online community. With the help of Justin Beiber , he and Milk started to do positive philanthropic work, most famously known for when they spray painted in Milk's backyard "Pray for Philippines"[25] which led to raising 3 million dollars for the Philippines. This is when Milk introduced Justin Beiber to multiple childhood cancer patients, and led to in the summer of 2014 for Milk , with the help of other celebrities to start up Fam4Fam and file for 501(c)3 with 2 portions.[26] . The first portion is Fighting ALL Monsters which has a goal of assisting kids and families of kids with life threatening illness. The second portion is Finding A Meaning which is aimed at helping teenagers get through their problems.
