For Priddy Ugly, his age has been one of the often-asked questions about him. It would not be out of place for one to wonder why this is so. Well, from what we gathered, it has a lot to do with the reports that claim his wife is older than him. The rapper to the best of our knowledge was born on the 2nd of April 1992.

As far as we can tell, Ugly’s journey towards becoming an entertainer began when he was a teenager. It is said that he competed in the St. Peter’s National Dance Tournament when he was 15 years old. As he won the Best Male Dancer Award at the event, it inspired him to devote and channel his life towards building a career in showbiz.

Priddy joined other dance groups and had a fulfilling time with them before he became a part of a musical boy group known as Krunk Era. The group would later gain popularity after it renamed itself Blaque, and with them, Ugly got his first significant breakthrough in his career. Blaque was signed by H.U.G.E Entertainment in 2007.
