Mann grew up a lonely and reclusive child, listening to rappers such as Rakim and Slick Rick on Hot 97. He started rapping at the age of 11.
Mann appeared on and produced 11 of the 12 tracks on X-Raided's 1992 debut album Psycho Active. He was also featured on the song "Ho's E Schemin Too" as well as a skit with Sicx on KRD's album Sac-Town Funk. Performing as the Street Talk Crew, Brotha Lynch Hung, X-Raided, and Sicx released the cassette Niggaz In Black in 1991. It is regarded by Mann as "some of my best work."

“False history gets made all day, any day,
the truth of the new is never on the news
False history gets written every day

sifting her own life out from the shards she’s piecing,
asking the clay all questions but her own.”
