These former gang members were kicked out of school 11 times from 9 different schools which ultimately lead to them being kicked out of the Memphis City School System.

Because of the lifestyle that they lived, these twin brothers ended up in life changing situations Bryan was shoot at Raleigh SkateLand Skating Rank trying to save to young children because of a altercation that involved him in a free style rap battle that took place on the inside of the Skating Rank. Brandon took a bus hostage in a gang rival incident that put him in a position to serve 30 years in prison as a teenager for what he had done. These events lead D'Voted to change the life that they were living. Since then, they have shared the stage with Kirk Franklin, Mary Mary, John P. Kee and many more people.
