When you read this rapper's biography, you immediately get a feel for the many obstacles that he had to overcome to achieve success in his young life. He had to endure the hardship of being a good basketball player in high school but to be held back by his coach.
He was the one who didn't miss a shot in the try-out but was mysteriously excluded from the team. Then when he switched schools, his coach was telling all the Division I coaches that call that he was not at their level. The coach was receiving letters and hoarding the letters and not passing them on until he was confronted by Jair's mother.
He was forced to go to prep school in order to be further exposed to coaches in the basketball system in the US to get an athletic scholarship. Inner city kids can definitely learn from Jair's experiences because he never allowed these "haters" as we call them in hip hop to block his ambition and determination to achieve success.
Very close reliable sources revealed that Jair's problems didn't only come from his basketball coach. Apparently, people very close to him who will remain nameless, also worked against him to block his path to success. For a lot of people, these would be insurmountable odds or obstacles to have to overcome but Jair turned them into stepping stones to success.
