It is known that DDG started making videos in 2015 when he was an enrollee at Central Michigan University. He later dropped out, which is why the content on these pictures may be a little rough.

Career

Drakeo’s first group was called “Team Hitz”, which consisted of four members: Drakeo, T-Wrecka, Spadez and Bigga Rankin. They had a couple songs on YouTube such as “I’m On It” and “The Life”. The group disbanded in 2009.

What happened to DDG YouTube?
DDG YouTube channel was terminated in April 2018.
When DDG started his YouTube channel, he was a big deal in the rap community. He posted multiple videos of himself free styling, rapping about his life experiences and stuff like that. He became a pretty big YouTuber with over 1 million subscribers and hundreds of millions of views. However, he got into some legal trouble back in 2013 due to an altercation at his recording studio which resulted in him getting arrested and charged with aggravated assault. The charges were eventually dropped but the damage had already been done as far as his YouTube channel was concerned. His videos were removed from YouTube by the company because they didn’t want to be associated with someone who had a criminal record so it looks like we won’t be seeing any more videos from DDG on YouTube anytime soon.
When was DDG arrested?
DDG was arrested on December 17, 2013 for aggravated assault and criminal damage to property. It all started when DDG got into an altercation with some guys at his recording studio. He claims that the guys were trying to steal from him but they say he called them over there to fight. The argument escalated and ended up with the police being called in.
In the end, no one was hurt and no charges were filed but it looks like DDG’s career took a major hit as a result of this incident because shortly after he was arrested, YouTube deleted all of his videos from their site. They didn’t want to be associated with someone who had a criminal record so they took down all of his videos.
