Meet JG: From Foster Care to the Pursuit of Happiness

“Who JG is just a real personal and personable type of artist. I don’t ever hold back, I keep it real… I’m not a person that tries to act perfect or cool. I try to act like the coolest guy, but God knows I’m not.”

Justin Goss grew up in the foster care system in Fairfield, California, which is in the San Francisco Bay Area. He had a good adoptive mother. “I had a life full of love and also a life full of hurt as well.” He was molested at a very young age, saying that he was a “super confused, kind of upset, angry, happy little kid.” Justin’s adoptive mother passed away when he was twelve years old.

“I grew up in church but was very very very very bad… I was actually a terrible, evil, little, mad kid as well. I had my good side where I’m a happy guy and then I had the other site where I am a very evil mischievous little boy.”
